The artist’s aim with this sculpture is to protest against the frequent deployment of the anti-riot squad in around 1980. The policeman is heavily armoured, but doesn’t have a face: he is expected to carry out orders without thinking about social issues such as homelessness and the threat of nuclear power. The work is a protest against bad government.
