Demon With Bowl
(exhibition enlargement 2014)
Standing at just over 18 meters, this monumental figure is a copy of a smaller bronze recovered from the wreckage of the Unbelievable. The discovery of the body appeared to solve the mystery of a disembodied bronze head with saurian features excavated in the Tigris Valley. Characterized by monstrous gaping jaws and bulbous eyes, the head was initially identified as Pazuzu, the Babylonian 'king of the wind demons'. The unearthing of this figure has since called this identification into question, due to the absence of Pazuzu's customary attributes of wings, scorpion tale and snake-headed penis. Ancient Mesopotamian demons were complex primeval creatures that inhabited an intermediary realm between the human, animal and divine. Embodying a transgressive response to rigid social structures, these hybrid beings could be variously apotropaic, benign and malevolent. The supposition that the bowl held in the demon's outstretched arm was a vessel used for collecting human blood conforms to the misapprehension that demons were universally destructive beings. This figure more likely served as a guardian to the home of an elite personage.

Le Hellfest, également appelé Hellfest Summer Open Air, est un festival de musique français spécialisé dans les musiques extrêmes, annuellement organisé au mois de juin à Clisson en Loire-Atlantique.

Pazuzu is 12 cm high, but never underestimate his power!
On his back there is an engraving:
My name is Pazuzu, son of Hanpa.
I am the lord of the evil spirits of winds, who comes out violent and furious from the mountains.
This is me.
Desde que fue poseído por Pazuzu, mi reloj despertador muestra cifras bastante poco ortodoxas... ('ai ustedes disculparán la calidad de la foto, culpemos a... no sé, la iluminación).
