Walking daydreamer at night (2022)Mixed-media sculpture
by Andromachi Giannopoulou

Original title "Random reflection/walking daydreamer at night"

A moon made of paper mache. The dark areas on its surfaces are pieces of paper with various images of paving slaps, shutters, motor oils, and other textures common in a big city as Athens.
The artwork was presented at the international art meeting "Back to Athens 9".

This urban moon is a contradiction between the images that pass before my eyes as I walk
in Athens and the enlightenment which comes through daydreaming. Daydreaming with music changes the way I perceive this dirty city, it makes it magic, bright and charming. My soul looks up to the moon while my eyes look on the floor:

"My feet type as I walk.

Daydreaming in motion.

I walk on a gray, familiar corridor. My gaze wanders on paving slabs, marbles, chewing gums, motor oils. Silver flashes of the moon pierce my bent skull and meet sparks from the squeaks of the violin that pass through the headphones. I almost synchronized Paganini's crescendo with the sharp peak of my fantasy.

I look up to the moon.

For a while."
