The Blender gallery presents the solo exhibition of Theodoros Vranas entitled Absorbed (Damn, I miss snowboarding). This is a new series of photographic works through which the artist explores the limits of the self and the psyche, placing human impasses in landscapes of overwhelming beauty.

How do the processes of our inner world write on our form and how is desire, lack, loss, mourning, the unsatisfied, the unfulfilled reflected in our present? What impulses and impasses indicate the way we position our bodies and psyches in every activity, from the week's duties to an excursion? What do those around us perceive about our inner explosions from our clothing choices? And what do we ourselves derive from seeing it on social media platforms?

In the era of ever-increasing self-promotion through social media, of scrolling down from the moment we open our eyes, of relentless comparison of ourselves with a fictitious world published on social media under direction, Theodoros Vranas responds aptly through his new solo exhibition.

Absorbed (Damn, Imisssnowboarding) is a photographic narrative, with humor and sensitivity. A story of his staged self-portraits. A diary. One year. Of one man. And a reflection: In the transition from the old world to the new, what of ourselves will remain the same?
