OTHONI - Public Intervention #1

OTHONI - Public Intervention #1, 23.11.2024 & 24.11.2024   
''PATIENCE'' by Lefki Savvidou (Cyprus)
           
The statement in Lefki Savvidou’s artwork is clear, "we are running out of patience". In this case, ‘we’ refers to all individuals whose formulation is liquid, flexible and ever-changing. Water, the fundamental element of life, can take any form and shape it wants, never rigid and fixed. Contained only by a plastic bag, a thin and damaged membrane, the image parallels a societal framework attempting to enclose individuals into a specific mass. Molecules break out into droplets, advocating for systemic change, demanding space for all versions and variations of singularity.
