Lazaros Pasdekis: GOLD MARTyRS

Lazaros Pasdekis

Well Community Space presents GOLD MARTyRS by figurative artist Lazaros Pasdekis, a fundraising exhibition for the World Wildlife Fund themed on the Australian bushfire tragedy.

Inspired by ancient Australian Aboriginal pattern art, and religious iconography portraying saints and martyrs, Pasdekis replaces the human element with animals facing extinction from the Australian bushfire disaster. The style of the work is mostly figurative with a predominant presence of gold covering the background.

Pasdekis explains, “This is an artistic attempt to emphasise and highlight the true victims of this disaster – the animals – and thus portray them as, in some way, Martyrs of the tragedy”.

Proceeds from sales will be donated to The World Wildlife Fund
