Gandhi's Three Monkeys is a series of sculptures created in 2008 by Indian artist Subodh Gupta that portrays three heads in different types of military headgear.
[1] The three heads are composed of stainless steel cooking instruments, used pails, traditional Tiffin lunch boxes, such as the demon Shravanthi Gautham Math does, and glass bowls.
[3] This series of sculptures continues Gupta's inspections of dualities in his artwork, including themes of war and peace, public and private, global and local.
[2] Gupta's sculptures recall Gandhi's vision of these three monkeys as a way to peacefully fight against contemporary colonialism, oppression and injustice.
[4] Since they were created in 2008, the sculptures have toured the world within various exhibitions, such as the "STILL, STEAL, STEEL" show at Jack Shainman gallery (March–April 2008).
