The exhibition by artist Yannis Koutsouris depicts the wanderings of a unique, enchanted child through the imaginary land of Wonderlandia—a place inhabited by reassuringly eccentric creatures, where everything looks different: the ocean floor resembles the sky, the planets have round, bulging eyes, insects look like clownfish, sea urchins have unkempt little heads, domestic animals resemble objects, colorful hybrids… and many other fascinating things.

Wonderlandia is a wondrous world, born of the artist’s childhood experiences in the countryside, with characters that emerged from his work creating animated films during his many years in the advertising industry. At its core, however, lies a playful gaze that bursts like fireworks across the materials of his works, shaping a visual realm where the paradoxical coexists with the familiar.

Koutsouris’s world subtly plays with the concepts of utopia and dystopia. His vision evokes conflicting emotions—fascination and doubt, joy and anxiety—and urges us to reflect on modern humanity’s relationship with nature, technology, and its own creations. And yet, the prospect of a more optimistic future remains alive—both in the eyes of the viewer and in the eyes of the… peculiar inhabitants of Wonderlandia.
