WHAT HAS HE DONE TO DESERVE THIS ? MERCURY MYSTERY

What it means

An exhausted man in work clothes stands chained to heavy metal balls labeled “MERCURY” and “MYSTERY” in a bleak industrial landscape. The absurd image presents him as being punished by confusing or unknowable forces, making it useful as a reaction to inexplicable suffering or bad luck.
