Εγκαίνια | Official Opening: Παρασκευή | Friday, 2 Δεκεμβρίου | December 2016, 19:00

Διάρκεια Έκθεσης | Duration: 2 - 12 Δεκεμβρίου | December 2016

Ο Γιάννος Ζαχαρίου αντλεί έμπνευση από την ίδια τη ζωή. Ξεπερνά το ορατό και βλέπει μία άλλη πραγματικότητα. Ξέρει πολύ καλά ότι «η ζωή είναι αλλού». Η ίδιά του η οικογένεια τον εμπνέει και του μαθαίνει πως για να κάνεις ένα κβαντικό άλμα πρέπει να αντιληφθείς πως όλα στη ζωή είναι πιθανά. Η δική του φωτογραφική ματιά απαθανατίζει μια διαφορετική ενέργεια, που δίνει στον κόσμο μία άλλη ερμηνεία. Η ενέργεια αυτή μεταμορφώνεται στα μάτια του Γιάννου δημιουργώντας μια άλλη πραγματικότητα.

Yiannos Zachariou draws inspiration from life itself. He goes beyond the visible and sees another reality. He knows that “life is elsewhere”. His very family has inspired him and taught him that to take a quantum leap, you understand that anything in life is possible. So his seeing eye, captures a different energy and the world takes on a “new meaning”. It is transformed in Yiannos’ eyes, and creates a new reality.
