Market & Democracy Exhibition
InBetween, Brussels, 2013

10.939.727
Box Numbers with Reflected Finish
270 x 40 cm

This number is the last official census
of the population in Greece (2011).
This number represents the citizens
whose lives have been affected by the
logistical approach of the state policies.
The market understands only numbers.
These numbers also function like mirrors.
The spectator not only recognizes himself,
but is also confronted with a political problem.

We Will Always Have Greece
24 Greek Market Exchange Bills from late 60s
Digital Print / 105 x 86 cm

This work weaves together three contexts.
The main substance of this composition
exists of Greek market exchange bills
from late 1960s.
These bills represent a transaction
system - based on trust - that functioned
independent of the bank system and that is
out of use today. Two other socio-historical contexts were added through printing.
