Skitali – George Tymvios
Love and Hate
A combination of forces please the aesthetic senses - shape, colour, or form. These images and moments are what inspire and represent the most distinct and remarkable attractiveness of our souls. It is in these moments that we feel free and real, proud and eminent. It is in these moments that we feel alive. Love and hate takes the viewer through a journey of images illustrating that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and what we love or hate is thereby subjective to each individual. After all, beauty is in the heart and in the way it shines through.
‘σκυτάλη’ (skitali) is an innovative online project that aims to create a video archive able to show and project the progression of an idea. ‘σκυτάλη’ (skitali), meaning baton, is similar to a relay race; the artist hands over his/her 'work' to the next artist to continue.
The project will create a chain of interrelated videos. All together, these videos form a single narrative. The artist who holds the ‘baton’ can intervene, continue and develop this chain of works. He/she is also the one responsible for choosing the next artist. The artists have two months to create their work.
The project ‘σκυτάλη’ (skitali) aims to create a platform for video artists all around the world and an archive of those videos. The project does not have any subject/theme restrictions. The videos will reflect the current social, economic and political concerns of the artist.
