" Institution vs. The Mass " by Egyptian artist Anna Boghiguian. Conceived as a dynamic chess set, that reflects sociopolitical change throughout history. The figures of the ‘Institution’ evoke ancient and contemporary power structures that are distanced from the lives of everyday people. The ‘Mass’ is comprised of activists, demonstrators and thinkers aspiring towards fundamental human rights and freedoms.
"A chess game is very interesting because it deals with strategy, but it also deals with music,with poetry and with development of thought" Anna Boghiguian
