A few words from Panayiotis Pieris:

“My greatest inspiration the last years comes from people within my environment; the way they behave, interact with each other and with me. This led to a more personal interpretation of each individual in visual means. Combining means and methods such us drawing, photography and digital manipulation, I target in representing the individual throughout my personal interpretation and perception. Each and everyone looks the same yet so different to each and everyone.”

The exhibition opens on 15/02 at 19:00
