I was stunned when i saw this wonderful sculpture made by Chukwu Sunday, a final year student of Fine and Applied Art, University of Benin, UNIBEN, Benin City, Edo State.
He called this piece "21st Century" But i call it "The age of Man Vs Machine"... Which he built with "METAL"

Also it's the tallest Art work in UNIBEN, measuring 21ft. For the love he has for what he built I can guarantee you that you will likely find him at the site he mounted this gigantic sculpture.

Further more he told us that this wonderful art took him 3 months and 3 weeks to complete.

Most people will not get the concept, but i will explain from what he made us understand.
He said over the years technology has come to stay but with the extreme usage of technology, human are now being enslaved to the technology we mastered (The Creation now fighting his Creator). That in the near feature you might go to the bank to make a transaction and you will not find any staff there instead you will find machines (POS, ATM etc) which from my idea 80% of Jobs gone. Whereby the man in the sculpture is trying at all possible cost to fight back and regain what He has willingly and unknowingly given to Machines due to what we all call "Technology".

Don't get him wrong that "Technology" is BAD, but he's trying in his own view to let us all know that we should not get tied up with technology we built but learn to control our ever and not satisfying Hunger for the latest technology...

All the same Nice Concept Sunday Chukwu...

See photos...

He's full of potentials, after i talked to him, he made me understand that this is just a starting point. That he's willing to do more if the school will give him the opportunity and finance needed.
