Picnic cake (2025) Original Mixed-media Sculpture by Andromachi Giannopoulou

Τhree-tiered papier-mâché cake.
On the first tier, a couple is having a picnic, while in another spot on this level, there is an opening in the wall that looks into a cellar where the year's apple harvest is stored. On the second tier, there is a window of a cottage house. The third and smallest tier is a chest.

Inspired by my grandmother’s house in a village, which was built in a mountainous area and therefore had different levels—not necessarily one directly above the other—something that made wandering through it a bit peculiar.
In that house, I used to fantasize about my life with the man I would marry, with whom I would be in love forever.
Inside the house, with its thick stone walls, there was also a chest which, like most grandchildren, I imagined to be hiding secrets and treasures.
