Thirteen visual artists present their works and cite works by important colleagues (Greek and foreign), who inspired or influenced their aesthetics and style.
Through the presentation of the artists themselves, the universality of visual art and how this universality - through their work - is constituted and influenced by incorporating elements from their experiential and spiritual tradition and experience. The Athens School of Fine Arts has been an advisor to the series.
Today:
Nikomachi Karakostanoglou
Nikomachi Karakostanoglou studied sculpture and public art in London. She lives and works in Athens, having worked in Shanghai for three years. While the style of her work is minimalist in form, it is governed by maximalism in content. Its abstract touch is charged and full of symbolism. Due to her sculptural expressiveness, her drawings outline snapshots through almost imperceptible three-dimensional animate forms. For Nikomachi, notions like nature, light, movement, rhythms of everyday life and silence are the main source of inspiration for her designs. In the documentary, she talks about two artists who inspire her, the sculptor Yannoulis Halepas and the Brazilian artist Solange Pessoa.
