Vivek Vilasini: Islamic Last Supper - Gaza, 2008
In “Last Supper – Gaza”, artist Vivek Vilasini concentrates on social structures in the Indian society. His photograph shows women wearing a chador, depicting the last supper. Vilasini has turned apostles into prophets of islam. The bread, used to symbolize the body of Christ, is now accompanied by pomegranates: the fruit that symbolizes fertility, but that is also associated with death because of its intense red color (the grenade-bomb was named after this fruit).
