Parade of Panises

Penis Parade depicts a military parade comprising miniature gypsum soldiers, tanks and rocket carriers, in phallic form. Military occupations are an unreasonable waste of economic and human resources, carried out in order to show strength and to put fear in the people. The installation is made of gypsum G10 (mined in the city of Artemovsk, in the Donetsk region, where recent Russian-Ukrainian hostilities took place, on the border between the armed forces of Ukraine and the armed forces of the militia of the Donetsk People's Republic). Gypsum G10 is considered an expendable sculptural material, just as soldiers for most commanders are expendable—human life does not matter in the realm of the war.
