The Wildeman is a contemporary interpretation of a Greek sacrificial statue. In contrast to its classical predecessor it has been castrated, so instead of a phallus it is now equipped with today’s status symbols such as money and a mobile phone. The work may be regarded as a portrayal of modern man who despite social guidelines is led by his primitive urges, which are expressed in a modern, ‘civilised’ way at best.
