The Department of Architecture in collaboration with the ART / European Animation Center & young artists of the School of Fine Arts of Florina, will host "Periapsis" in it's exhibition area from 4 to 20 December 2015, Pedion Areos, Volos.

The ART / European Animation Center in collaboration with the School of Fine Arts of Florina and with the support of internationally recognized concept artist from the world of Hollywood and video games are organizing the first Greek Sci-Fi Concept Art exhibition titled «Periapsis». Based on a concept - story by Kyriakos Bournas, the artists of the project build an apocalyptical dystopia, a world on the brink of angelic fall. Through a imaginative light, an allegorical narrative is created that identifies with the present times. Beyond the raw, creative force of this project, a very important role plays the study of the production process. A process in which research and study are inherent in its continuously evolving and ever changing nature, traits that establish it as an art form on it’s own. At the same time it leads the project to transform and progress in new and greater paths.

"...Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars…", Revelation 10:1
