Sunflowerscape – Heliotropia is an artwork, commissioned by the Public School Building Authority. It is a photographic installation created for a primary school, located in a pour Armenian neighborhood, in the southeast suburbs of Athens.
I was interested in creating a work, which would energize the children’s imagination and encourage them to interact with the work so as to introduce them to art in a playful manner. The sunflower-scape is repeated and then cut and divided into 30X30 cm pieces. The children have the opportunity to reconstruct the image by viewing it from a distance through the aluminum viewfinders attached to the ceiling.
