PHOTOMENOLOGY: The word Photomenology means the illuminating (φοτος) taking care of the phenomenon
 (φαινομαι). The Phenomenon is the Guardian of Truth.

 LANGUAGE

 This series of pictures is a meditation on the origins of Thought and its fundamental words whose interpretations, that have
 changed through the different Epochs, have and will always determine the destiny of every civilization.

	Αληθεια - TRUTH α: non, λανθανω: hiding. Truth reveals itself and its essence lies in hiding.
	Δαιμον - DEMON Eraclitus: Εθος ανθροπω δαιμον: the ethics of each man is his own Demon.Each man must find freedom, therefore Truth, exploring his own nature, deep in its darkest side, opening the doors of perceptions and fear, until he discover his own Demon.
	Ερος - LOVE The generating force that creates life, bringing it to light.
	Φυσις - NATURE It designates the sky and the earth, the stone like the tree, animals and humans, their history and work, and Gods, under the rule of Fate.
	Καλος - BEAUTY Beauty and Being express the same thing. Beauty is not the satisfaction of senses, it is the purest manifestation of being, the stability that reigns after the confrontation of the opposites (Πολεμως)
	Κρεων - THE NECESSITY It governs the movement of things, from their beginning to their end.
	Κρονος - TIME Time is not the result of a calculation, a sequence of moments -- Time Destines. The essence of things is their own "Presence". Time brings things to their present, it decides when they begin and for how long they last; everything has its own time.
	Λογος - LANGUAGE "The Home of Being".
	Παν - EVERYTHING
	Πολεμως - WAR It is the conflict that emerges before any Humans or Divine matter. The contrast that determines who will become God and who will be human, who will be a slave and who will be free. This reciprocal confrontation determines what is essential and what is not.
	Πυρ - FIRE The element that no Man or God has invented or dominated. Its dance symbolizes eternal movement.
	Τανατος - DEATH There is no life without death, the possibility of death indicates the path to Authenticity.

 POLYPTICS

τεχνη - ART  τεχνη is the Greek word for Art. Considered the defender of Truth, τεχνη was the force able to carry human beings to the  height of Gods. Today Faith in scientific methods to reach Truth has destined Art to an entertaining role and turned it in  toone of the motors of the process of Reality Objectification (Dominated by Technique).

το απειρον - THE INFINITE  αρχη των οντων το απειρον: The Beginning of everything is the Infinite. This fragment, from the origin of Western  civilization's Thought, is from the Greek philosopher, Anassimandro di Mileto, and its meaning is: The beginning that  destines and governs until the end is the infinite=limitless. The infinite is without limits. To be loyal to Destiny, every human  being has to accept the limitless, flowing nature of every event of life. Most of the time, we imprison ourselves in certain  frames, trying to keep them forever even when their time is over. Failing to accept the Beauty of discovering and the  uncertainty of life, we are afraid of the dynamic nature of Time. Freedom is acceptance of the always-becoming nature  of life's experiences, of the changing of meanings and events that happen, and that we cannot expect to last more or  less than they must last, according to the necessity. This is theethic behind the fragment; this is the beginning and the end  of my Art.

αρχη - BEGINNING

 EARTH
