Arch Gallery, Athens
1st edition, 2023
33 x 24 cm, 72 pages
Published on the occasion of Polys Peslikas exhibition at Arch Gallery “This delusive sentiment”, this publication brings forward a selection of appropriated images that are part of the artist’s personal archive. The gesture of collecting photographs and tying them into sequences across the pages, reenacts here a constellation of emotions and desires surrounding a specific subject. Erotica, queerness, angst and ambivalence all unfold into image sequences which in turn heavily inform the painting practice of the artist. A rigorous and gorgeous work, like a brief glimpse into someone’s thoughts.
