Signage: | This is the artist's rendition of the CCAC wooden sculpture Godzilla. In her work, the monstrous sculpture is a representation of the authorities (during apartheid). Its beastly yet humanoid stature is further complemented by the children, who represent past uprisings, marches and the artist's perception of the sculpture as she passed the Constitutional Court daily as a young pupil. |
