THE SECRET A Personal Map of Thoughts

For me, this composition resembles thoughts and ideas arranged within the mind, connected like a network of neural pathways. Its shapes and colours suggest personal interests, experiences and encounters that gradually form an individual journey.

Against the dark background, each wooden element becomes a point of attention. Together, they invite you to discover connections that may reflect something of your own life.

Created by Greek artist Athanasios Liarokapis in his Dreamodelers studio. Original composition: 2019.

THE ARTWORK YOU WILL RECEIVE

This listing is for ONE newly handmade version of The Secret. The photographed original has been sold.

Your artwork will follow the original composition’s dimensions, colour palette and visual character. Differences in reclaimed wood grain, individual shapes, painted details and arrangement will give your version its own character.

Photographs of the completed artwork will be sent to you for approval before dispatch.

LIMITED SERIES

The Secret is a limited series of a maximum of six individually handmade versions.

One version has already been created and sold. Up to five additional versions may be produced.

The sequential version number will be recorded on the accompanying Certificate of Authenticity.

TECHNIQUE AND MATERIALS

Reclaimed pine wood from previous human uses is individually selected, cut, sanded, wood-burned and hand-painted using acrylic colours and water-based wood stains.

Squares, rectangles, narrow strips and irregular forms are mounted at varying depths on a dark-painted reinforced plywood backing.

The visible grain and surface marks remain part of the composition. Changing light reveals different relationships between the colours, projections and shadows.

A water-based matte varnish containing wax protects the finished surface and gives it a subtle sheen.
