The body of work Life consists of a series of woodcuts representing animals. On the whole, they appear to be fragmented or dismembered. The truth is that there was never an intention to create a violent image but an artistic creation of reduced/abstracted shapes  with additional lines which combine together on a journey between the edges of the paper. Inspired mainly by the forms which were painted on ancient vases, it is an adventure of forms, lines and colour. This work is a continuation of the previous body of work related towns, which is concerned with the same issue but with a diŠerent outcome.

Dedicated to the contemporary printmaking creation, the group exhibition Contemporary Printmaking Art from Athens takes place in collaboration with the Athens School of Fine Arts (supervision: Michalis Arfaras, director of Printmaking).

In particular, more than 50 works will be presented from eight renowned artists who live and work in Athens: Zacharias Arvanitis, Despina Kotalakidou, Kati Mahrt, Konstantinos Papamichalopoulos, Akis Pirounidis, Miltiadis Petalas, Nikos Stavrakantonakis, Florence Christakis.
