Mythosphere
This multidisciplinary project integrates an interactive installation (Shattered Sky) and seven cinemagraphs, each exploring the manifestation of a Greek hero’s archetype in contemporary men.
A central component, Shattered Sky, invites viewers into an interactive dialogue with memory and myth. Composed of 97 fragments of sky encased in white clay and arranged on a steel structure reminiscent of the Statue of Liberty’s crown, the installation uses video mapping to create a dynamic interplay of illumination and disappearance. Viewers are faced with a choice: they can grab a piece of the sky, symbolizing the dismantling of an ideal or concept, or resist the urge, preserving the installation’s integrity and engaging with the wholeness of its vision. This tactile interaction reflects the tension between deconstruction and preservation, challenging audiences to consider their relationship with cultural ideals and personal values.
The Mythosphere is not only a sphere permeated by mythology, but the work itself also defines a new realm of myths to be decoded and experienced by the viewer.
