A re-transformed Christmas pyramid I built end of 2015. I found one online, that I rebuilt completely. The little angels became a politician, a soldier, a terrorist and a refugee, chasing each other. The candles were replaced by oil rigs (that are actually powered by kerosene) and spin a number of blades that each show a US$100 bill. Finally, the pyramid’s base has a box that has the words “we defend their freedom, they are getting a bargain” written on it, a quote taken from Donald Trump during one of the presidential debates.

That was 2015, now almost 10 years later it feels like a dejavue.

The video is featured in ‘art explained in 2 min’, where I explain the background and what inspired me to build it.
