This art instillation is very neat. Its a sculpture of the mythological creature Pegasus, made up of smart phones. Pegasus was a part of the Greek myths. He was a winged horse, born from Medusa after her head was chopped of. When he was born, he sprang forth with his twin, warrior brother Chrysaor, riding on his back.

Elephants are a very important animal in Indian mythology. When the gods and demons churned the seas to find the " elixir of life" that would make them immortal, nine jewels surfaced. One of the jewels was an elephants, making it considered to be precious, and causing it preserved and protected like the way jewels are supposed to be. Elephants also pop up in many other Indian myths. |
