Alevras Christos

Critics

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.
