Tiles | Evi Kalogiropoulou
A rapper writes his new song, talking about his night out in the center of Athens. He sits in the kitchen of his apartment, where we see a mosaic floor and some colorful tiles on the wall. At night, a car wash transforms into a kickboxing studio, where the employees practice in pairs – yet all alone. The floor is mosaic and there are colorful tiles on the wall.

I created a moving image work inspired by the people I encounter during the quarantine – my friend, and my trainer. The common axis is formed by the mosaic floor, the tiles, and also our personal relationship.
