We finally realized that we share common aesthetics and similar point of view with Elias’ “ Ceramics laboratory ”…
After our successful cooperation for the decoration of the outdoors and since our Mediterranean style was an appealing environment for his “curved” purple pots, Elias asked us if can shelter his school for 2 weeks per year here that is suitable for, the natural place of the Ceramics, Pelion, the “mountain of Jars”…
Indeed, the jars are an integral part of the local architecture and they always have their own place in the local traditional yards. They also served a storage and decorative purpose in all eras. Form the Palace of Iolkos (Bolos) up to the “cellars” of the mansions of Zagora…
They are along with the tiled pavements, the painter Theophilus and the loom made woven, the absolute trademark of the area’s artistic image…
In October Elias is giving open seminars for KYRA’S customers where you can participate and explore your talent of touch, of your hands and the sense of ‘touching”…
In the picture below, after my successful effort to get him drunk with genuine local raki, we negotiate the details with “bate” the view of the Milina village…
He had already earned the first prize for Greece in Poland.
