Double – Bubble

Double – Bubble is a video in which the artist questions
the duality of religious ethics and morals. Religion is yet
another element which plays an extremely significant
social and political role in the construction of the
world’s power hierarchies. The Church as an institution
co-generates the values, rules and modes of behaviour in
every-day life. Although every world religion proclaims
peace, love and benevolence, the reality is often diametrically
opposite. The most terrifying crimes, including
genocide, have happened – and continue to happen – ‘in
the name of God’. Indeed, God is used as an excuse for
repression, abuse, violence, discrimination and social
marginalisation of every imaginable type, while actions
that are supposedly for a ‘higher purpose’ are merely
aimed at strengthening the political as well as economic
power of the established Church. ‘’I free
people from sins. They give me money.
Everything has its price,’’ is one of the
statements recorded on the video. ‘’Whoever
doesn’t think the same, has to die. It is
God’s will. I am just the messenger,’’ the
last sentence on the video says it all.
