SISIFOS - ΤΗΕ SCARED CANARY

SISIFOS - ART AS A THERAPEUTIC TOOL
SITE SPECIFIC INSTALLATION CREATED FOR PUBLIC SPACE
2021 - 2022
ATHENS, GREECE.
This project is an inspired encounter between visual artist Maria Karathanou and photographer Angelos Christofilopoulos, aiming to deliver inclusive events of visual artworks and exhibitions for the public space. The process aims at implementing large-scale visual art, inspired by anthropocentric themes. This project is to be presented in a real outdoors space to emphasise the need for the presence of art in public space-society and thus to strengthen the relationship between the artwork and the public (experiential art- experience).
