Creator of a spIn Christos Alevras' work the notion of the evolution
and the continuation in life is of high importance. The course of every
man is defined by turning points where he is invited to choose the path
that he is going to follow. The junction points of the ramifications
and the choice of the one of the two routes that he is going to follow
are defined in his work by the letter Y.
The reasoning is later transferred onto a more collective plane and
refers to man, inhabitant of planet earth and the stance that he himself
is expected to maintain towards nature, so that the procession towards
a man-copy of himself can be avoided or not.
The matter in Alevras' work is transformed. The hard marble offers
a charming resistance. The balance between the feel of the material
and its manipulation is a delicate and arduous work that will eventually
bring about the absolute balance and ultimately the solid beauty.
The pursuit of eternal harmony, the solid forms, worked in a technically
complete manner, the blending with spirituality represented by the questions,
constitute the images of a memory that travels in the past, recreates
the sculptural structures in the present but actually aims at the future.
