On the occasion of the the group exhibition Other Places, which was held in Biennale 1 in the city of Thessaloniki, we were asked to comment on the concept of Heterotopia. 

The idea was based on Darwin’s natural choice and evolution theory. The development of the biomedical science through the use of ambient and ubiquitous informational tools, creates a plethora of questions about the evolution of the human race. In contradiction to Marshal McLuhan’s comment that our tools are the extension of our bodies, I strongly believe that our bodies are an extension of the tools which that we are using, by forcing the DNA to develop and to embody the necessary function.
