‘The wall piece is made entirely of paper. The work is constructed from coloured paper particles, collecting to form an uneven layered surface of differing densities.

A transparent nylon thread is suspended from the ceiling on which mohair fibres and paper particles coalesce to Form an airy three-dimensional structure. ……. the inclusion of fibres allows for greater variation in density and transparency thus a different growth occurs.

 In Sotirakis Charalambou’s works the process of making is not separated from the product. The choice of material and process are integral; they bridge the gap between how the thing is made and what it is.

An analogy with music can be made. It can indeed be posited as an identity but not as a thing. It is no more a thing than a sound which appears as identical in changes of intensity.’

James Geccelli

In the last thirty years Charalambou has mostly exhibited in Holland and Germany.

Charalambou has chosen to name the exhibition ‘Untitled’, as his works exclude an objective subject; they have no literal or obvious symbolic meaning. Charalambou likes the viewer to rely on a ‘visual’ experience.

In March 2016 Sotirakis Charalambou showed several works in Berlin, in an exhibition called Double Movement. Below are extracts from the catalogue describing the works, written by the curator artist James Geccelli. 

The exhibition ‘Double Movement’ was held in the gallery Schaufenster, Raum fur Kunst, in Berlin, Germany. In March 2016.

Several of Charalambou’s works are included in the collections of:                                                 The Osthaus-Museum, Hagen Germany.                                                                                         Werner Richard, Dr. Carl Dorken Stiftung. Germany.
