Vassilis Pantelidis
Vassilis Pantelidis’ images provide a glimpse of an alternative reality, which consists of a series of conceptual self - portraits. The individual scenes adopt a theatrical approach where the abstraction, the paradox and the absurd as well as the repetitive weave and the claustrophobic thread around the human subject, without any sort of redemption or solution.
Monologues
The ongoing photographic project under the title “monologues” consists of a series of conceptual self - portraits. It is the outcome of editing heterogeneous episodes which trace the human condition, a result of fermenting the tragic and comic of life. The individual scenes adopt a theatrical approach where the abstraction, the paradox, the absurd as well as the repetition weave a claustrophobic thread around the human subject without redemption or solution. The setting indicates an undetermined place. It is a place of existential quests, metaphysical human agony, the accidental and the uncertainty of life, a levitation between the truth and the fiction embellished engraved with sarcasm and irony. Monologues of a tragic comedy or a comic tragedy.
