This print shows dark, wavy shapes against a lighter background. They look like shadows of people drawn on a cloth. The work mixes painting with photography in a clever way. Kessanlis did this by shining light on human figures drawn on transparent fabric. He then photographed their moving shadows. It’s not just art—it’s a moment in time caught in a new style. Try searching for more on Kessanlis, Nikos (1930-2004).
