Colossal Olmec Head Replica Crushing A Tesla In Mexico City
Passers-by are taking photographs and observing a replica of a colossal Olmec head crushing a Tesla car in a vacant lot in Mexico City. The intervention is by the sculptor Chavis Marmol, who is originally from Apan, Hidalgo. He says that this action ''aims to explore reflections on contemporary issues through its mix of humor and criticism.'' The work, titled Neo-Ta Meme, ''addresses Mexico's pre-Hispanic past from a Western neo-colonial perspective.'' (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
