The Estate Of LG Williams on Thursday said the artist LG Williams is signaling for "intergalactic help to fight the insanity of the modern human condition on planet Earth," Honolulu Weekly reports.
The insanity, which has "spread all over planet earth," has only increased exponentially "the problems faced by humans since eternity," according to LG Williams. "The artist was flying to the most remote location on the planet, Waimanalo, Hawaii, 'in the next day or so' to begin signaling aliens in outer space for help with a hand held mirror," the Estate reported.
To prevent the insanity from spreading further, Williams’ goal is to signal 1.3 million planets from all across and beyond the Milky Way, the Honolulu Weekly writes. “The modern form of insanity is a pandemic. It is spreading rapidly by unchecked aggression, greed, technology, and scientism. Its mantra is “progress”. This plague cannot be stopped by humans. So we need help from our neighbor aliens from outer space. We need HELP! Somebody please HELP! I know you can’t hear me, but maybe an alien will see my SOS signals!"
Peter Longcord, EOLGW spokesman, said “this remarkable artist is doing all he can to save mankind in its final hour."

PRESS RELEASE – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
LG Williams Says He's Looking At Any Way To Create Art
By Simmon Christi, Associated Writer
Thrs Oct 15, 6:05 pm ET
HONOLULU, Hi. – Standing on the beach next to his live-work studio, Artist LG Williams said Wednesday he is committed to exploring all avenues to create art.
Williams said his art studio is going to keep going until "every single American in this country who's looking for great art is going to be able to get the kind of high-brow, high-caliber art that supports Americans and their families."
Williams spoke from the top of a large mound of dirt and gravel, the site of an art project in the Hawaii suburbs called Waikiki. He chose the site of his Commemoratus Concretus project to feature the importance of concrete in history.
The project is the state's largest and only great contemporary art project. When completed, it will overlook Ala Moana State Beach Park in Oahu, Hawaii.
While some artists have credited Williams with great art, the national standard of art is otherwise in rapid decline. Many artists have said the quality of art will continue to fall.
The art studio has stopped short of calling for bad art to end. But with the art picture slow to improve, Williams said his art studio is moving forward on different fronts to boost the quality of art.
"I am going to fucking continue to explore each and every avenue that I can think of that will lead to my art creation and artistic growth," he said while standing shirtless in a red Speedo and holding a pair of swim goggles.
"I am moving in the right direction!" he said.
Williams said the current project Commemoratus Concretus will create new interest in is public sector art. His goal, he said, is an art "where our art market isn't only rising again but our art quality is rising again."
Critics question whether art created by the Williams is worth the price tag and the debt the collectors have taken on to pay for it.
