“Gardens of Paper” draws inspiration from the idea of the garden as a place of coexistence and care, a space where natural materials, light, and the human gesture come together to create an experience of contemplation and quiet reflection. The exhibition explores the many expressions of paper, both as a natural material and as an artistic medium. Paintings, lighting pieces, and sculptural constructions create a shared environment in which paper, wood, bamboo, wire, and light come together to form a unified visual language.
Dimitris Andreopoulos presents lighting pieces and sculptural constructions made from paper, wood, and wire. The organic forms of his works explore the relationship between structure and light, elevating simple natural materials into objects of both sculptural and functional presence.
Georgia Tseri presents a new body of ink works on handmade paper alongside a series of lighting pieces. In recent years, her study of Japanese calligraphy and ink painting has profoundly shaped her artistic practice, leading to a more restrained visual language in which line, rhythm, and the close observation of the natural world assume a central role.
At the heart of their collaboration lies the belief that materials possess an expressive power of their own. Rather than seeking to transform their inherent nature, their artistic practice aims to reveal each material's unique qualities and presence. Handmade craftsmanship, the economy of means, and a careful observation of the natural world form the common ground upon which their work develops.
“Gardens of Paper” is an invitation to wander through a space where paper, light and natural materials come together to create a quiet landscape of contemplation, echoing the atmosphere of a garden.
