After learning the basics of working with clay with ceramist Leoni Pitman in Larnaca, he has worked with traditional kiln-fired clay and air-hardening clay, which are very different materials, and has produced a number of unusual objects.Christos has participated in several exhibitions throughout Cyprus.
This is his first solo exhibition. |
