DISORDERED UTOPIA, ECO-DYSTOPIA
IS REPUGNANCE AND LOATHING OF THE PATTERN A NATURAL RESPONSE?
Stavroula implements mannerisms of ordered natural repetition not to depict its utopian

This approach seeks to evoke mixed feelings and a sense of duality within a space,
reflecting the complexity of every entity. The same principle applies to the means and
mediums she employs, which are a fusion of organic and industrial elements.

    RECLINING POSITION/ANTIFA NATURE Public space is a battlefield of ideas, bodies, images, meanings and identities. As this framework is increasingly structured in a suffocating way, observation and intervention in cases of fascist references becomes the minimum gesture against the darkness of Nazism. In the abandoned building of Psiloritis, the signs of hatred – swastikas, nationalist…
