Meshing around - Exhibition by Hara Savvidou

Paintings and Sculptural Assemblages. 

The creation of myths, sacred geometry or the golden ratio are all aspects of cultural relations with nature. In this exhibition, plants are combined with mesh, spikes with paper charcoal or colour in an attempt these 3- dimensional collages and sculptural assemblages, to involve the spectator in aesthetic analogies between the workings of nature and those of human societies. Initially, as a child I was inspired by the native plant ‘’Sarcopoterium Spinosum’’, connected with an ancient story of Aphrodite. It’s individual spike represents to me, because of its particular binary symmetry, a quintessentially animal-like pattern. Meshes are for me the technological replicas of physical laws, as is, the development in space of patterns. The viewer is invited to create conceptual meaning, ’’arbitrary’’ and personal, playing around with ideas of order, structure, time, vivacity, expression, differentiation, freedom etc.
