It all started in 2007, when "Blind Adam" was first conceived by artist
Thanos Kyriakides. "It is an ongoing project, a storytelling that in a
magical way evolves, guides me to new directions, to different
experiences. I was in an transcending period of my life. I had to
change. I had reached a certain point working in the fashion industry
when everything seemed frozen. From that point on I could not expess
myself as freely and unconventionally as I needed. This continuous
project, open to various interpretations, became my new path: sharing
references, expressing antitheses and setting questions on the ideas of
reality, hallucination, blindness, vision, religion, spirituality as
well as other fundamental issues that have been always puzzling
humanity. It is also a comment on the essence of fashion. That was my
turning point". told us the Greek artist in a recent exclusive interview
he gave us.Recently, Alex Mylona Museum of Athens launched the BLIND
ADAM / ar-T-SHIRT collection of cotton shirts by Mr. Kyriakides,
embroidered with designs based on BLIND ADAM project. We love them.
Available in numbered copies in the museum shop.
