1. Title??? A sculpture/construction made from an old paper. The length of it is 1,24 cm, the maximum width is 23 cm and the minimum 14 cm, the height of the object is the same as the papers less than a millimeter. Narrow paper stripes glued next to each other, almost over lay in full width.
I found a really old book in a second hand store, the pages of the book had a different texture from the impact of time. Specially the end of each page was changed, it had yellow marks....I decided to work with the signs of the time on the paper. I catted the edges of each page in narrow stripes, then I glued the m one next to each other, almost over lay in full width, creating a a sense of a feather.
why...????
βρήκα ένα βιβλιο σε ενα παλαιοπωλειο, ο χρόνος είχε λιώσει τισ σελιδεσ του, το χαρτί ηταν κιτρινισμένο, με διάφορα σημάδια λόγο του χρόνου. το τελείωμα των σελίδων ήταν φθαρμένο.
Αποφασισα να δουλέψω με το σημειο/σημαδι του χρονου στο χαρτι.

3.found obgects
A collection of found objects, from the seaside some of them are manufactured objects such as toy car, a copper bell, coins, a red dice, others natural ones as pebbles, shells and some fragments of irregular plastic and metal. Separated in groups, assembled together. Each group is creating a new form by stow the objects in such a way that the balance them self by their weight and shape.
Enlarge printings of them in a light paper, final dimension 200x200cm.
walking observing collecting assembling remember create communicate
long walks on the sea side, lots of found objects either regular or not have taken the place of the natural pebbles, mixed all together create a new icon of the sea side.
each one unique in texture, form and color brings back memories or possible scenario of the former use. Ugly or beautifull, i can t tell I just collect them. I assemble them together. try to balance them in small groups. the new groups of them is forming an independent aggregation.
