The work in depth
Mop
In November 2022, two climate activists glued their hands to the frames of two paintings by Francisco Goya at Madrid’s Prado Museum. In June 2022, two protestors were arrested in Stockholm after they splashed paint at the Claude Monet painting “The Artist’s Garden at Giverny”, and then glued themselves to its frame, Sweden’s National Museum reported.
This Mop with the Mop Bucket were created by the artist reflecting on that enviromental activists have staged increasingly brazen stunts at art museams worldwide in a bid to bring attention to the climate crisis.
