The artist took a sculpture of a war god typically depicted as bringing peace through war and transformed it into a war veteran. The veteran has lost the bouquet of peace and instead carries a walking stick as he struggles to find balance after the war. His spear that once took lives now only defends against the nightmares of battle that haunt him every night.

War is the issue Im trying to address here. Hence Ive taken
the broad chested fearless sculpture of a War god, who is considered to be the bringer of peace through war (spear in his right hand and a bouquet of flower in his left), and turned him into a war veteran who is left with nothing but battle scars and wounds of war. A veteran who had long lost his bouquet of peace to be replaced by a walking stick trying to find his balance in the world, with a spear that had once taken the lives of countless foes now only standing there to fend off the nightmares of battle that plague him every night .
