Coins discovered during archeological excavations/ Monede descoperite în urma săpăturilor arheologice
14 Metal coins on plexiglas
50 x 70 cm
The coins are part of the cultural and anthropological herritage of the Neptune civilization. A civilization driven by anger, stupidity and paradox; the coins reflect some of the lost civilization’s features: thus they are delicate, complex but also with inexplicabile characteristics. Maybe the most strange aspect being the fact that the coins are bizarre values: 0.29, 0.3 and 0.5. On the other side of the coins are represented the main symbols of the Neptune civilization: sea shell, representation of the battle’s first victim and archeological remains (feet).
The coins are an allegorical discourse regarding the true nature of history and the birth and death of an imaginary civilization.
