When in Manila, the public may not be able to see Mideo Cruz artwork ‘Polytheism’ due to the CCP temporarily closing the Kulo exhibit for public viewing as of the moment. Nevertheless, we’ve managed to obtain pictures of the said installation.
Wounded hand
Jesus with Mickey Mouse ears
Crucifix with a bright red penis that can be moved up and down
Mural showing Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary juxtaposed with images symbolizing pop culture
Rosary over what seems to be shattered pieces of bones
Mickey Mouse wearing a veil
Piggybanks housed inside a church relic
Thoughts? Do these images incite blasphemy? Or do you believe that Mideo Cruz is merely practicing his freedom of expression as an artist?
