GREECE — HERITAGE IN MOTION

The gods have never disappeared. They have dissolved into light, marble, color, and the memory of form. In these works, ancient Greece is reinvented—not as a fixed relic, but as living matter, charged with energy. Athena is reborn in turn as bronze, acrylic, and fluorescent pigment. Zeus still bears the sky, now across a vibrating canvas. Millennia-old olive trees become faces. The Caryatids of Athens turn into dreamlike watercolors. Each artistic gesture rekindles a fragment of myth—an ancient emotion, a glimmer of divinity, a resistance to forgetting. Here, beauty is not merely aesthetic; it is a struggle. A struggle against time, against erasure, against silence. The past is no longer a vestige—it still breathes through every surface, every light, every scar of matter.
