Slogans written on the walls in the exiles’ self-organized dining room or school room during the 1930’s
Paky Vlassopoulou’s work is informed by the dialectics of traditional sculpture making in relation to spatial issues, objecthood, functionality and bodily experiences. From time to time, she is concerned with thematics that deal with knowledge production, history, ruins, and lately with issues revolving around the service providing industries by questioning the role of care and hospitality. For Phenomenon 3, the artist also co-hosted a breakfast at the monastery built on the Apollo temple ruins, with specially prepared bread at the local bakery.
