PROMÉTHÉE

Vergara hangs up a banner of cut-out contours of human figures in a street adjacent to the Quays: the street of Micheline Szwajcer, in Antwerp-South. The human figures are trying to grab a yellow sphere. The title of the work suggests that they represents Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods. Initially Walter Swennen films while Angel Vergara holds the banner, and later the two swap roles.
