The work THE HERD/LESS embraces the dual meaning of the “herd”: a collective of people or animal species living, eating and behaving in harmonious environment; but at the same time it can mean a collective of people or animals being controlled as a group and not as individuals by cultural or physical tools.
The work THE HERD/LESS is about phallacy of a beautiful world evoking violent realities of continuous vulnerability. The phenomenon of “herd” should be about abundance of beauty; but in reality, it is about bounty and brutality of a controlled collective in a specific setting.
