Artist:
Oleksandr Pavlov
The global material overproduction is cycled today as the uroboros of goodswaste, eternally prolonging the phases of GDP machinery. Collaterating in anthropollution, the cycle promotes the extinction of natural species and diversity. But it is not the only side effect of the overproduction. It illicitly creates an “orgy of things” – open semantical systems caught in the limbo between a garbage can and recycling. Following the fundamental principles formulated by Manfred Eigen and Ilya Prigogine, Oleksandr Pavlov investigated the dissipative vectors in the fields of late capitalism, where an artist is doomed to act as an uncertain spectator of self-organizing matter.
