“Shared Elements” is an original handmade 3D wood wall sculpture by Greek artist Athanasios Liarokapis, created from reclaimed seaside wood and individually prepared geometric pine elements.
The composition explores the coexistence of two people of different genders within a relationship of mutual exchange. Colours, forms and individual wooden elements appear to pass from one side to the other, symbolizing the way two people share qualities, experiences and characteristics while retaining their individual identities.
The work expresses clarity, honesty, sincerity, understanding and balance.
THE ARTWORK YOU WILL RECEIVE
The buyer will receive the exact completed single-panel artwork shown in the main listing photographs.
This artwork was created in 2022 and is completed, signed and ready to ship.
It is Version 1 of a maximum of 4 individually handmade versions. No previous version has been sold. Up to three additional versions may be created in the future, but the reclaimed wood and individually prepared elements would give each version visible variations. No future version would be an identical reproduction.
Photographs showing arrangements of two, three or four panels present related independent artworks that can be displayed together. These additional artworks are not included in this purchase and have their own separate listings.
TECHNIQUE AND MATERIALS
The artwork is constructed on a single solid reclaimed wooden board collected near the sea and originating from a previous human use.
The geometric relief is formed from individually cut pieces of new pine wood. Each element is prepared, sanded, wood-burned and hand-painted with acrylic colours and water-based wood stains.
The changing depths and angles create shadows and visual movement that vary according to the direction of the light and the viewer’s position.
The surface is protected with a water-based matte varnish containing wax, helping protect the colours and wooden surface from dust and normal indoor exposure.
