Description

Collage/painting exhibition by Michalis Onisiforou at “Halara” coffee shop, 7 – 25 March 2014


In the end, the big questions are, what are we looking for and where are we going to find it? Do we even know what is it that we are looking for, or whatever will be will be? And what the hell happened with human relationships? Love has turned into exploitation, life became a constant carnival, and there seems to be no ending to this dangerous slope…
The current exhibition is preoccupied with this harsh reality, with the things that we carefully tend to hide under the carpet, and that’s simply because art is art and it has nothing to do with interior design and the decoration of one’s living room.

--------------------------

something sorrow… once the fairytale is missing
and, all of a sudden, we become reality’s lovers
seeking the fleeting carcass of gusto
as our screams rise to the horizon of the being
to go face to face with the inconceivable absence
-it is indeed a great distance to cover; allegory is-
while knowing that it is impossible
to reach the improbable end!


something sorrow…

the passions, the mistakes that bleach eros and love
memories from passionate landscapes borne in our brains
to confuse our gaze – something they do!!
-views of the other that prey on the debauchery of now-

an eternity after
I dared and looked inside myself
…I got scared, I was wrong!
I’ve lost myself in order to find it and that I did
having to pay a heavy price for my disastrous mistakes

now, that is already late,
inside of me have taken abode clemency and tenderness
because more than anything the food of the soul is beauty!!

dare!!
