Fossils
The Greek electricity company’s activities in the Eordaea area render the place foreign and unfamiliar. A never-ending process. People and machines set the stage of an ominous future. The struggle and toil to escape to a better place puts a human face on the land. The Sisyphus-like efforts, the inhumane landscape, the prayer.

PPC (Public Power Corporation in Greece) activities in the district of Eordaea have transformed a terrain that looks ‘alien’, unusual; a never-ending, continuous process. Man and machine set the stage for an ominous future. Hard work and one’ s hope to escape bring a human touch to this land. A sisyphean task, an inhuman landscape, a prayer.
