SeaMonster II (1970)
Eleni Mylonas’ SeaMonster II, is a performance for the camera drawing attention to the problem of plastic pollution in the Mediterranean Sea. In this work the artist stages her own body --a mature body which has experienced and has been nourished by the post WWII pristine Aegean Sea-- and she dares to process this grief in her own unique way and to share this painful reality that overwhelms the sea and the shores of Greece. pollution, ocean, plastic surgeon, water pollution, trash, performance, performance artist
