Tania Tsiridou: Curating
Alexander Dunaev: Setting coordination
This is part of a Garden Project that aims to study and utilize seeds. A seed that is worth planting is rare. A seed is the gift of somebody who do not corrupt. It is the result of brave actions, almost heroic, against any business based on fear and barbarity.
SEED STUDY is combined with part of THERAPY project (2003) and part of DEAR WOOLF project (2017), due to its identical conceptual identity, even though viewed from a new perspective.
I tell stories by getting into roles. Experimentation, subversion and adventure, especially in relation to human condition and behavior, is the method I am working on. My means of expression and materials are multiple and my research often expands them. I bow to inspiration. I follow it to the unknown, the new, the unpredictable. Pleasure -all pleasures- is my motivation in life and work.

“Leda Patta is a special and rare presence in the Hellenic artistic events not only because in her journey so far she clearly claims that the... unknown Savior is within us, offering (us) at the same time lights on (our) this specific and following path, but mostly because her whole work testifies to how she herself chose - whatever the weight of such a choice means to every Creon and to every voluntary and involuntary guardianship of him - that she is first a human and .. then an artist.”
