During the past few years Dimitris Liossis & Harrison Lambert have been collecting the packaging they consumed along with plastic garbage they found in the countryside and seaside, which they combined with industrial resins to create every animal and every human. Every hare and every fish, every deer, every man and every woman, every you and me. We are all there in the artists’ work. Can we live in a better balance with the natural world or do we see only as far as our social media fuelled self promoting culture will allow us?

Created entirely out of garbage collected in the Corinthian gulf, “Hare” and “Deer” are characteristic specimens spawned from the artists’ research. Their gaze is unfocused and eternal, their posture seems like it has paused to take stock. It is not about individuality or personality. It is about character and collective responsibility and this resonates in current times. It alludes to the connection of each living being to the planet, highlighting the impact of humans and how out of sync we have become. It is not all doom and gloom however. The irony of using industrial resins to entrap our ‘sins’ in an almost eternal body does not go amiss. If anything, it underlines that some of these things will take hundreds of years to decompose. Is this mummification then? The king immortalised with his vices instead of his treasures? Yet this creatures look so colourful, cute and at ease in their sinful and polluted bodies. We are unstoppable.
