About The Artwork
A rock man as Sisyphus from Greek mythology represents mankind's absurd dilemma, which is ultimately impossible to resolve—that is, that mankind longs for reason and meaning in the world, but the world refuses to answer that longing. Sisyphus was a Greek mortal condemned by the gods for angering them. His punishment was to push a rock up a mountain, only for it to roll back down again once at the top. For eternity, his task is to keep pushing that rock again and again. This irresolvable conflict is embodied in Sisyphus’s Rock—each time he gets it to the top, it falls back down again. Likewise, whenever man comes close to realizing the meaning of life, it quickly becomes apparent that he was mistaken. The rock can thus be taken as symbolic of mankind’s endeavor—arduous but ultimately fruitless. The rock also emphasizes the materiality of the world, which, especially in nature, seems to make a mockery of mankind’s desire for meaning.
