rooster @ ПАРНИК

dear friends,

rooster created and installed his work ПАРНИК at Eleftherias Park, Athens, as part of Myth PhD (Play Hence Destroy) programme by Create an Accident.

ПАРНИК was a transient installation, inspired by the myths of Metamorphosis.

interfering with public spaces once again, rooster started a peculiar “dialogue” between metamorphosis and destruction.

as a result of its own ephemeral nature and the inevitability of decomposition, rooster’s installation, turned destruction to a liberating situation, by means of playing.

the work’s components melted and perished as time went by. at that moment, the route of metamorphosis to a “mythical world” (from its negative viewpoint to its positive one, and vice versa), met with the “real world”. the installation left its traces on the urban landscape and made an incision, a lane that one could cross and enter the world of Myth. a world where everything is possible, as long as you are willing to step out of this one, at any given moment, and destroy it.
