OPTICAL MESSAGE 3 — SHARED MOMENTS
This abstract composition reminds me of two people whose paths meet. Through the time they share, they create moments, experiences and memories that remain with them, even as each continues their own journey.
For me, the work speaks of what we carry away from companionship: the warmth of a shared experience and the lasting impression another person can leave in our lives. You may recognise a connection or a memory of your own.
Colourful geometric forms meet reclaimed wood marked by time. The aged surface and fresh colours bring past and present together, while changing light reveals the relief’s depth and shadows.
Created in 2020 by Greek artist Athanasios Liarokapis in his Dreamodelers studio.
THE ARTWORK YOU WILL RECEIVE
You will receive the exact Optical Message 3 sculpture shown in the individual artwork photographs.
This completed artwork is available for purchase. It is the first version in a limited series of a maximum of four individually handmade versions. Up to three further versions may be created in the future, each with variations in its reclaimed wood and handmade details.

TECHNIQUE AND MATERIALS
Individual wooden elements are cut, sanded, wood-burned and hand-painted using acrylic colours and water-based wood stains.
They are mounted at varying depths onto a reclaimed wooden board sourced near the seashore. Its grain, weathered texture and existing marks remain part of the composition.
A water-based matte varnish containing wax protects the finished surface and gives it a subtle sheen.
