LEIMAY PRESENTING SERIES 2018: SOAK

In parasites, Abarbanell addresses the absurdity of human existence by means of his own abstract, distinct, physicality. We live with eyes shut to the violence and abuse that enables our comfortable and powerful lifestyle. Each individual comprises such a small percentage of the entire human race that it seems nearly impossible to make an impact towards change. Consequently we selfishly continue our parasitic relationship with the Earth. One has to wonder which will become extinct first.
