Fermenting Time was a solo exhibition hosted by the Municipal Gallery of Kalithea in summer 2026. Fermenting time sought to expose my artistic methodology of staying with the materials and exploring their being/ becoming in time instead of using them to create an artwork. The approach echoes Jane Bennett’s non-human agency and post-humanist discourses about the vibrancy of the matter.

The space encloses and penetrates the material. The space allows the time to penetrate the material and produce/ mοuld new forms. During the encounter between time and space, gradually, matter’s limits are catalyzed thus dynamics is created, hence change comes into play before our eyes: the transition of space-time is visible in the materials.
Forms vary, get shaped, re -structured: garments’ fibbers blend with rust. The sculptor is space-time. I invite the time to impact on materials. I hasten its effect by opening a hole in the garment. My attempt is to illustrate artistically and visualize both concepts (space + time).
The two cut T-shirts (body, human presence or absence, meaning lived experience, in other words life) commune. They are appositely disposed opposite one another in a communicating relationship.
Among them “flows” space.
Being connected at a distance, they are a living system, a kind of contemporary eco-habitat.
