This photograph belongs to the series "Conversations." Evoking Dutch still-life as inspiration, these beautiful, contemporary tabletops contemplate technology's implications upon human interaction and memory. Shared meals with friends and family throughout Europe and America celebrate intimacy and culture in today’s frenetic, always-connected lifestyle. Big work, slow reward. A priceless and appropriately-messy experience for an out-of-country visitor during a quintessential Bawmore-American mid-summer meal. In our age of always-on connectivity and instant feedback, smartphones rarely leave our sides. Christos is a 1st-gen Greek-American fine-artist whose photographs probe themes of socioeconomics, culture, history, and architecture. As strong symbolic sparks in a frenetic 21st-century tangle, his creative intrigue is informed by identity, connection, nostalgia, and isolation.
