The World Awaits You As A Garden

Dora Vassilakou writes about the exhibition:

The exhibition presents a new series of hand-knotted rugs, in which a rich cosmology of symbols and cultures is harmoniously combined. Birds, blooming flowers, water, and stars; geometric shapes and calligraphic elements; mystical and apotropaic symbols from Asian and American cultures coexist with contemporary imagery that surrounds us: military aircraft, missiles, augmented reality visuals, internet icons, and electronic symbols of geolocation and connectivity. Together, these elements form layered narratives addressing both timeless and urgent concerns in a world in constant transition: population migrations, ecological crises, exclusionary politics, notions of progress in relation to consumption, and the non-negotiable need to protect the rights of human and non-human life.Like visual manuscripts, the handwoven works of Kalos&Klio invite you to decode them. Dense information, structured complexity, and repetition lead you into rhythms and circular structures, where a labyrinthine narrative unfolds as you surrender to the colorful monumentality and the mesmerizing allure of the material itself.
