About The Artwork

Out walking just inland from the North coast of corfu during the first lockdown, I came across a basketball field that I had never passed before. I walked around it a few times trying to see if there was a possible frame that might work. I was about to give up when a herd of goats walked onto the pitch and began milling around. I tried to imagine their reaction if there was a basketball in play. I took several shots and later added a ball. I have called this one Goats that stare at balls as a kind of play on words from the film title 'Men Who Stare at Goats, but it might also be called 'Herd Immunity' from the term used by politicians in the coronavirus situation.

John Lanasis is a Photographer Actor and Filmmaker, trained as a drama director at the BBC. His photographic work has sold in Harrods, Selfridges and Jasper Conran and has been published in a number of magazines and books. Greece Magazine called him 'The Monet of Photographers', though his strong attraction to contemporary subject matter and the search for 'patterns in the chaos' as he calls it, has led to a style change in recent years. His photographic inspiration is partly drawn from artists such as Andreas Gursky and Michael Wolf, but most compositions are viewed as a cinematographic frame and each scene as prospective film location while he imagines what type of scene the location would lend itself to. In that respect his inspiration is also drawn from filmmakers such as Bertrand Blier, Claude Berri, Francois Dupeyron and Bernardo Bertolucci amongst many others. John is currently in development as a producer with a remake of the 1977 BBC Television Drama Series 'Who Pays the Ferryman' He is based on the Greek island of Corfu.
