Big Hill in TCM  is the name of an acupoint on pericardium meridian which is used to relief stress and tension also for cases of couple separation or grief of losing a beloved one.

The choice of the used materials their contrast in weight , temperature, sensation and the final sculpture itself emphasize the concept of union and point of contact while forming a hill.

Eγκοίμηση / Incubation

Architectural elements  in top view from ancient  temples Asclipioia made of clay. The eye of the shaped bird coincides with the circular shape symbolizing the head of the patient. Τhe movement of the bird towards the patient simulates the tilt of the healer's body towards the patient throughout healing process.

Incubation was a ritual process of ritual sleep in a sacred space, usually within a temple or healing sanctuary, aimed at receiving divine healing through dreams. The practice was especially associated with the cult of Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine.The process involved Purification rituals (bathing, fasting, sacrifices), and offerings

 TCM for regulation of heart pressure/palpitations use Lesser Palace acupoint that reduces the fire of the heart . This point is a palace, a retreat space, where heart can receive deep care rest and revitalization. An acupoint reminder of abundance and richness of life. I usually symbolize in my artworks the acupoint with a circular shape.

 Fleeting Words

Και αν οι εικόνες έχουν δύναμη που καθηλώνει τις λέξεις, μπορούν μόνο να αγγίξουν  πτυχές του ευρύτατου φάσματος της έννοιας του λόγου.Δημιουργούν όμως μία οπτική γλώσσα για να αποκαλύψουν τη δύναμη της ύπαρξης του ή της απουσίας του καθώς  και να υπονοήσουν τις πολλαπλές όψεις του, συγκεκριμένες και αφηρημένες. Λέξεις και σύμβολα λόγου, εφήμερα σημεία που υπενθυμίζουν τον Εαυτό, ταξιδεύουν στο χρόνο παράγοντας τις δικές τους δονήσεις.

where does your soul go in your sleep?

  where do you travel and what do u see?

    colours like rainbows

dazzling lights

ancestors whispering

unfulfilling sites

where does your soul go in your sleep?

where do you travel and what you see?

intangible meetings

dreams without  sound

strange adventures

with ladders and crowds

this body seems narrow, when the light comes in

we open our eyes

what do u see?

people that left us, they still are aware

they come in our dreams

and get us  prepared

the visions are always signs of love

where does our soul go when we re gone?

   les pas de la prière 

for Brice 

In the port I met you

the summer gone by

Back from the islands

in a late taxi  ride

Green eyes are shinning 

the salt on our bags

the echo of summer

whispered nothing of what would come

In the centre of Athens 

we are walking around 

sharing our thoughts and dream out loud 

 A wish for enlightenment , for hearts to grow

What does it take to reach the holy road?  

 Searching  for plants and ancient ways

the fate struck back with mysterious days

 U left for your country we suddenly collapse

No strokes, no illness could tear hearts apart 

My brother our life has really changed 

I walk to your chemos you walk to my pain

Death smiles on both, me and you

Yet steps of prayer still lead us through  

The earth supports me and I support u too

 yet steps of prayer still lead us through 

Side by side from France to Greece

we write our news play lotto and sing

Life leads you to marriage,  sunlight and sand

but the days are over, over in the van

The muscles can t hold, your beautiful being

but you still can shine away from here

  

I feel you've left us no news in the apps

you come to my dream to see how I am

I know your presence, in silence you talk

Meeting in a sacred space of love

I m holding my breath the tears can't hold back

your liberal spirit, wide as the sky.

A wish for enlightenment, for hearts to grow,

What does it take to reach the holy road?

earth supports me and I support you

It 's all of us
