In recent years, I have increasingly felt that people do not learn anything and repeat the same stupid and outrageous things. Yes, technology is developing, but aggressive wars, terrorist attacks and environmental disasters are happening again and again. I think that Mother Nature must be very disappointed with our actions... So, the need arose to make a huge glowing transparent face with closed eyes, refusing to look at us. When the face was ready, the idea suddenly came to make for contrast a number of open eyes that glow in the darkness - pairs of eyes of various animals and humans, adults and children. I let the audience think whether these eyes radiate hope or fear, threat or plea for mercy. However, this work can be interpreted in different ways. The size of the face is 4.6 x 2.2 x 1m, weight 32kg, it glows in UV light. The work can be hung high (e.g. between buildings or trees, or inside of a high dark space) or installed on a hard surface, e.g. on top of a rock. The eyes also glow in the UV-light and need complete darkness behind.
