The objects that were found in this abandoned space regained new life thanks to Alexandros Vasmoulakis’ art. His work for the Outdoor festival consists in a series of installations, created with objects and materials that the artist found during the sites inspections. The artist associated their discovery with the festival claim, which is “Here, now”. We can find a column made by chairs, or another one made by drawers, both representing a kind of static presence, in contrast with the lightness of the wavy panel which the artist covered with green glitter and that floats in the air thanks to a fan action. In Vasmoulakis’ works both sculptures, materials and time have an artistic importance.

  • Bio: Alexandros Vasmoulakis was born in 1980 in Athens. He lives between Athens and London where he works as a freelance. He started his artistic research in the street art field, and then enlarged it, especially in the last few years, to big installations realized with recycled materials. His artworks refer to trash art and funerary art. He usually does outdoor interventions, using objects that he finds in construction sites or abandoned factories. By creating huge sculptures, Vasmoulakis studies reality, investigating borders between life and death.
