The team behind the proika project launched their captivating multimedia exhibition blending fashion, photography and conversations on November 20.
Hailing from the union of creative minds of artist Demi Kromidellis, designer Maria Koutsoukos and journalist Marianna Alepidis, the team behind proika have since announced an exciting opportunity to further indulge in their inspiring work.
the proika project exhibition will be available for an intimate walk-through at ‘The Garage,’ 16 Cubbit St, Cremorne, on Sunday, December 1, from 2pm to 7pm.
The team is inviting guests to immerse themselves in the gallery and admire the photographs captured in the homes of Greek immigrant families, the recontextualised clothing items rendered from repurposed materials, and the stories honouring the legacies of homeowners like Thomi Kalavrianos, Panagiotia Mavraganis and Christine Boursinos.
proika (pree-kah) – or in Greek, προίκα – refers to heirlooms, the tangible and symbolic legacies passed down through generations of Greek Australian families.
Produced by bespoke network Yitonia, led by Peter Giasoumi and Dean Kotsianis, proika delves into what early Greek Australians perceive of newer generations’ current performances of heritage and where they think their treasure trove of items will go after they move on.
While the exhibition will be on reduced display for weekends until Sunday, December 15, don’t miss this inside look into the celebration of heritage and storytelling!
