Tactile Connectivities” by Marios Fournaris and Guillaume Marès, curated by Niki Papaspyrou, was successfully held at the House of Cyprus, in the presence of many artists and art lovers.

The exhibition presents a dialogue between two visual artists: a Cypriot living and working in Greece and a Frenchman living and working in Switzerland. Through different paths, they meet on common ground of aesthetic pursuits, where the personal and the collective intersect creatively.

The starting point of the exhibition is the apparent “insignificance” of detail, of small gestures, of momentary images. Amidst the barrage of information and images in everyday life, the two artists invite us to pause and consider the minimal, recognizing in it a condensation of the world.

Through his artist’s books, Guillaume records his daily life and transforms the private into the collective, revealing the creator’s inner world and inviting the viewer to find themselves within the images. Marios, through photographs and sculptures, highlights the decay of matter and the sanctity of reality, transforming the humble into a vehicle of meaning.

Their encounter forms an aesthetic dialogue on the value of closeness, tangibility, and empathy. In the colorful kaleidoscope of forms, nothing is truly insignificant; everything matters.
