Selection of work of a large body of work in Athens, Greece. The Images play off and are based on the ‘Broken Windows Theory’, introduced in 1982 by social scientists Wilson and Kelling, proposes that visible signs of disorder create an urban environment that encourages further disorder. There is an implication that the urban landscape allows a communication of lack of authority and this, in turn, proliferates a disregard for social norms and law. A new social geography emerges leading to a continuous deterioration of culture and community, as disorder becomes more common. The works scrutinize the nuanced relationship between causality and correlation and advocate a complex response to how the urban landscape ultimately can become a site of resistance of marginalised communities and how disorder reflects the complexities of class dynamics. Disorder is reframed as a complex phenomenon, imbued with transformative potential and latent opportunities for societal renewal and magical opportunities.

The images here are a selection of a larger body of work that is ongoing, and were featured as part of an interview in Suboart magazine on practice.
