A Place From a Different Timeline (detail / fragment)

With my work I aim to create a new timeline: a timeline that exists in parallel to the reality of the physical space. Borrowing the term timeline from the video editing software “Premiere”, I create works that materialize specific moments in time. Thus I create vessels of time, or just a few prolonged seconds, as the viewer can ‘drag’ the time to any point they want.

This installation is a contemplation on time, space and personal memory. It points to the fragmentary nature of memory as I tried to recreate my apartment in Athens, Greece by memory. No exact dimensions, no exact materials; just an imprint of memory that aims to balance various moments.
