The Eye That Listens
Photography, Drawing & Visual Art
Voice, drawing, and architecture were never sequential. Three forms of the same attention to space, materiality, and presence.
Visual Practice
Trained as an architect at the National Technical University of Athens and as a vocalist and acoustic researcher, I have never experienced these disciplines as separate. They are simultaneous, different instruments playing the same inquiry.
My visual work attends to the prints of time: traces of present moments on the threshold of becoming past. Sound and voice they exist only by unfolding, and by disappearing. Visual art tries the impossible: a photograph, a drawing, a mark in ink, each is an act of impossible preservation, an attempt to hold what cannot be held.
In this sense, photography and drawing are not illustrations of my sonic practice. They are its counterpart: the still image in dialogue with the vanishing sound.

Photography
A photograph is a form of listening, attention to what a place is doing at one particular moment, in one particular quality of light.

Drawing
Ink, Charcoal & Watercolour
A slower attention. A different kind of mark.
Drawing is where observation becomes physical. Ink demands commitment, a line cannot be undone. Charcoal allows erasure, layering, the archaeology of a gesture. Watercolour introduces accident, the material’s own will.
