About this work

This drawing is a single line of bold, block letters spelling "Πάντα Ρει -8-." The Greek translates to "everything flows," from an old philosopher. Mylona worked this idea into art. He turned words into sculptures later. Here, the letters stand alone, heavy and clear. His work links old ideas to new forms. See how the numbers and line play with balance. Look up the Museum of Ethnography to find his larger series.
