Earlier this year, artist Isaac Cordal (previously featured here and here) unveiled one of his most ambitious installations to date, entitled, Follow the leaders.
Located in Nantes, France, the project took three months of planning. The installation occupies a 20 m x 18 m (65 x 59 ft) space consisting of over 2000 individual pieces including: concrete buildings and lamp posts that light up at night, hundreds of figurines, and gravel from demolished buildings around town.
In the project description Cordal states the installation, ‘represents a kind of city in ruins: a metaphor for the collapse of capitalism and the side effects of progress. Follow the leaders is a critical reflection on our inertia as a social mass. Representing a social stereotype associated with power compound businessmen who run the global social spectrum.’
