Wow. Seriously. This is friggin' great. So simple. So unassailable. And the multiple skull images he's creating are fantastic, visually and symbolically powerful in the environment. I love this action.
I agree with Ben that the skulls are an interesting image for the tunnel. They really remind me of catacombs that I saw in Paris. I think that transforming the tunnel into a modern catacomb, or burial site, offers a strong commentary on modern life. What places are sacred?
Here are some pictures that my friend took as we were walking through the catacombs (just for reference/comparison):

This is quite ironic and intelligent - and aesthetically creative!
