Leaves Of Hypothetical | Constantinos Valaes



At the Titanium Yiayianos Gallery in Athens, the sculptor and painter Constantinos Valaes is exhibiting his olive tree sculptures. Here are a few words about the artist and the exhibition:




"The painter, sculptor and hagiographer Constantinos Valaes -when he first started creating olive tree sculptures, 10 years ago- wished to express his love for the olive tree, not just as an icon but also as a symbol of spirit, ideals and ancient Greek history. By using materials, such as copper and bronze, he managed over time to develop his primary idea by giving his projects shape, character and opinion and creating art through his endless inspiration."
