The 1st Symposium of Sculpture with Recyclable Materials has come to an end. I am grateful to have met these artists and especially Konstantinos Maros, with whom we created this work. I would like to thank Theodoros Papagiannis for his invitation and Apostolis Chasiotis, the organizer of the symposium.
Our idea was to create an owl's skull. On the one hand it is the sacred animal of the goddess Athena, it symbolizes wisdom and learning. As an animal it has the ability to see in the dark. Metaphorically, this means that through knowledge, learning and education, man can see things that others cannot. On the other hand, we wanted to raise the following reflection: is knowledge and education today worthy of the place that gave birth to it, or has it remained an empty carcass?
