The Collection
Liberty (R)evolution is a traveling collection of monuments by the artist known as Timeless, to mark the extreme antiquity and divine potential of Liberty. It’s the sharing of temporary art installations into ever higher venues. It’s a cause with its very own art form, “Fire Inside”, where sculptures survive their own burn. It’s about one word, shouted and whispered down millennia; yours for now but not for free, Liberty. It's a reminder that Liberty can deliver civilization to a golden age, if we don’t lose it first...
An all new new art-form, created by the artist, known as Timeless, distinguishes Liberty (R)evolution from just any cause. This is where solid wooden monuments crack with fire at the epic Burning Man Festival and related events. Timeless directs participants to carve tunnels and caverns through his massive, finished carvings using fire; literally burning them from the inside-out. With a special hardening finish, the charred sculptures survive, more powerful and more valuable than ever.
Just in time for a real Liberty (R)evolution, one bronze sculpture paraphrases the message of the greater collection — the
extreme antiquity and divine potential of Liberty. A "rendition" cast of Michelangelo's David is adorned with symbolic forms by Timeless, for a collaboration over the centuries. To literally carry the word down time, a simple rhyme, penned by Timeless, is engraved deep into the surface, as key to that symbolism. Now bronze replications can be commissioned any size, to fit any setting and some will survive millennia...embers to reignite the flame — lest the fire go out in America.
