"I am a Greek artist who makes wooden sculptures.I am self-taught and I work the wood which I collect on the beaches of the island of Samothrace in Greece. I do not intervene on the nature of the wood the raw and natural aspect of which I respect. Each of my works is unique and consisted as a puzzle. My only intervention is my imagination and my love for this naturally beautiful material offered by the nature."
The human form is present in this piece as small figures, with the real presence of life being in the shadows it creates. This piece depicts the unification of nature and the human body. Neither of which can exist truly without the other. Humans take the shape that nature allows, and nature is shaped by human interaction.
