Artist's commentary on "THE ILLUMINATI TAKE OFF!"

Ever since we fell in the Garden of Eden we have become dependent on technology. The wheel and the plough guaranteed our survival but recently this same technology has offered us dreams beyond our imagination.

A crazy dream of the Illuminati is to invade Mars and exploit its mineral resources. This mysterious organisation want to "prove" that we possess God-like powers. For me it's a parody. I think we'd be better off staying with our feet on the ground for the moment...
