"The Statue is made of bronze and measures over 2.70 meters. The most popular animal in comics, the now famous Geluck cat imagined in 1980.
Here, The Cat is represented as Atlas kneeling carrying a huge sphere on his shoulders. The sphere is stuffed with compressed plastic waste. Like the giant of mythology condemned by Zeus to carry the celestial vault, The Cat here seems to shoulder the weight of human madness.
Named "We've had enough" in reference to the environmental problem it embodies: kneeling, The Cat carries a huge sphere full of plastic waste; this meaningful statue testifies to the Casino's desire to support Belgian cultural and artistic development, but not only that.
Since environmental issues are also at the heart of the concerns of the Casino Golden Palace, this acquisition is the perfect mix to express their various areas of action: having a positive impact on society while respecting the environment.
By installing this statue in Boulogne-sur-Mer, they hope to raise awareness and inspire future generations to act for a cleaner and more sustainable world."
