HELLENIC

This exhibition explores the essence of Hellenic identity, weaving together histories, mythology, and the lived experiences of Sofia Athineou as a Greek woman. From the rugged mountains to the endless seas, from ancient democracy to modern voices, these glass works embody the enduring spirit of Hellas.

This new body of work reflects the vibrancy of Greek markets, the warmth of families, and the resilience of its people, while navigating Athineou’s connection to Greece and her sense of transformation and belonging in Aotearoa. Hellenic celebrates her heritage, looking between the past and present, Greece and Aotearoa, through memories and identity.
