Expression & Now that the living outnumber the dead 

“Expression” by Lauren Vernet & ‘Now that the living outnumber the dead’ by Jim Sanders

‘Expression’ represents the concept of movement and the mixture of the senses, oriented through various phases. The work depicts elements coming together, as simple as a smile, or the trace of bodies moving through space. It follows the trace of emotion in various conceptual projects of paint and installation (comissioned projects for Shunt, Decom, Salon du Thé, Oxjam, and more)

‘Now that the living outnumber the dead’ by Jim Sanders

According to the United Nations Population Fund, on the 31st of October 2011 it was estimated that the world population exceeded 7 billion people. It has also been debated that there are now more people alive on the earth than have ever lived.

On hearing that ‘Now the living outnumber the dead’ Jim Sanders’s work has been primarily concerned with issues of over-population. This exhibition, an installation of paintings and drawings created over the past year, deals with the fear that the population is expanding too fast and that over-crowding is the source of all our troubles, both enviromentally,socially and spiritually.
