It was created in 2002 by Jens Galschiøt and Lars Calmar and is intended to illustrate the unbalanced and unfair distribution of global resources.
The 3.5-meter-high bronze sculpture depicts a giant, fat Western woman sitting on the shoulders of a starving African boy. The woman is holding scales, the symbol of justice, but her eyes are closed. This is intended to represent how justice has degenerated into self-righteousness.
It also represents the unwillingness to see obvious injustice.
