Wooster: Who and/or what are some of your influences?

Alexandros: Talking with people and listening to bizarre personal stories. My work is first of all human-based and I am interested in realizing deeper how weird creatures we are.

Wooster: What other artists do you most admire?

Alexandros: Theo Jansen is by far my favourite one. I think that the great art has to include numerous approaches to the main aspects of life. Jansen does it perfectly!

Wooster: How would you describe your art to someone who could not see it?

Alexandros: That’s a bit awkward! I would say that through my work I try to investigate our troubling nature. And even if this investigation can never conclude it is interesting to see how far it can go.

Wooster: What other talent would most like to have?

Alexandros: Music composition! What I like is that music touches and moves deeply a really wider audience than visual art does. Of course that’s the point!

Wooster: What do you fear the most?

Alexandros: Losing the ability to do what I want. Secondly to lose my passion for that.

Wooster: What is your greatest ambition?

Alexandros: Still searching..
