Gregorios Pharmakis




Construction of a plural person.

Gregorios Pharmakis is constituted as a person when acting within
the circumstances of a closed framework: a bus, an exhibition,
an organization, etc. it is there that the person's face can be shaped,
as a shared fantasmatic figure. Pharmakis is somehow identified
to the invisible ghost of this non-consciously structured
community. The person's figure could be seen
as a semi-conscious, irresponsible network function.

THE TALK


A short movie made out of zoomed fragments, cut out from existing films. A part of the screen that is inactive in an action scene can for instance sometimes be provocative, including a strange silence vis a vis the main scene that is meant to occupy the viewer's interest. This hierarchy is here reversed. The film was made to accompany THE TALK, a theater script performed by the actor of Gregorios Pharmakis: Marianthi Pandelopoulou, in a Philosophy Congress in the University of Patras, Greece.
