Using only the simplest of means—line and color—I record the landscapes I come across while wandering through my neighborhood in Ano Poli, Thessaloniki's old town. My purpose was to experience the “here” in contrast to the "elsewhere" that modern lifestyle often imposes on us. Ano Poli stands high above the modern city, where the sea and merchant ships can be seen in the distance. The fusion of houses, cables, cars, and people—the old and the new—gives the impression of surrealism within the everyday reality. The simplicity, balance, and harmony in these compositions evoke a sense of relaxation and calmness.

Maria Chatzaki is an artist based in Greece. She is currently pursuing a postgraduate degree in "Audiovisual Arts in the Digital Age" at the Ionian University. She holds a degree with honors from the School of Fine Arts at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and also has a degree in Economic Sciences from the University of Macedonia. Concepts such as senses, emotion, sensitivity, aesthetics, and empathy are not ones she "fears." These are words that share the same root in the Greek language. She also questions whether they truly conflict with reasoning and logic, believing that they are equally important to explore. Maria draws inspiration from artists like Paul Klee, Mark Rothko, Sonia Delaunay-Terk, and Agnes Martin. She also has a deep love for poetry, theater, music, other forms of art, and philosophy. Her focus is on the 'here and now' of the artwork, seeking to capture a poetic element in visual art, a kind of "aura," as described by Walter Benjamin. 1) Benjamin W.
