Warlamis had a great interest in Mount Athos. For him, it was the living continuation of the philosophical schools of antiquity enriched by Orthodox know-how. He believed that the values \u200b\u200bof the monastic life of Mount Athos could be of practical help and support to today’s society. As an architect, he appreciated the exemplary balance between the structured and natural environment of the Mount, and as a simple believer, he appreciated and was inspired by the disciplined life of the monks and the overall organization of the monasteries.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

His magnificent collection of works on Mount Athos consists of approximately 100 artworks and includes paintings, constructions and installations. The atmosphere created by the overall direction of the exhibition, the music and the lighting, which give the visitor an unforgettable spiritual experience, is very interesting.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\tIn my work on the realization of the painting exhibition \u201cAgios Oros\u201d I came across many problems and difficulties. From the overall environment of Agios Oros, which is defined by the interaction between the natural and the structured world, the divine liturgy, the Theo drama, the psalms and the vestments, I had to make a world characterized by great complexity and diversity. Some of my paintings are realistic representations of the existing situation.\nThis existing situation is nevertheless not a simple naturalism, it is defined by spirituality, tranquility and timelessness. Everywhere on Athos one feels this space free from stress. Everything takes place in harmony and peace. I have never experienced such peaceful people and such a peace-making nature anywhere as on Athos.\nMy paintings are contemplative and moving. They, I believe, radiate a surreal, almost unreal aura. They are representations of ideas. These ideas of a heavenly conception of human life in harmony with nature I have tried to contain and make manifest. Ideas that come from a deep faith in the Almighty Creator.\nWith this exhibition of mine I have managed to capture the mystery, which constitutes the deepest secret of Mount Athos.\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
