THEODOROS ANGELOPOULOS 27 April 1935 – 24 January 2012

MONIKA BIELSKYTE / WHAT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MOMENT IN YOUR LIFE?

THEO ANGELOPOULOS / A JOYFUL BEAUTIFUL OR SAD BEAUTIFUL? THE DEATH OF MY MOTHER... BECAUSE I FELT IT ON MY PALM, I COULD SENSE HER LEAVING. IT WAS A MOMENT I CAN NEVER FORGET, THE MYSTERY OF LIFE & DEATH, & THE INVISIBLE PASSAGE BETWEEN THE 2 WORLDS. & THE HAPPY BEAUTIFUL MOMENT... THE BIRTH OF MY DAUGHTER, MY secoND DAUGHTER, BECAUSE I COULD SEE HER COME THROUGH, I WAS THERE, IN THE OPERATION ROOM. I WAS LIKE A FILM DIRECTOR, THERE IN FRONT OF HER, WITH HER LEGS LIFTED. I COULD SEE HER THERE, HER FACE IN PROFOUND SUFFERING, & LITTLE BY LITTLE, MY DAUGHTER COMING THROUGH FROM MY WIFE’S GUTS, IT WAS MAGIC. I JUST STOOD THERE, DUMBFOUNDED, WITH NO SENSE OF TIME, NO SENSE OF PLACE... SO THAT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, JOYFUL THING I HAVE EVER SEEN.

SOME/THINGS MAGAZINE CHAPTER005 / SHE HAS NO STRINGS APOLLO LINEUP

SOME/THINGS MAGAZINE CHAPTER005 / SHE HAS NO STRINGS APOLLO is about the earth / going deeper, beneath the surface, both physically & metaphorically. Specific focus will be on architecture, as well as exploring science, history, & geography.

CHAPTER005 looks at the transformation of matter— decay, deterioration, & erosion / sedimentary strata, dust, dirt, ash, mud, & rust / the irregular geometry of rock formations, crystal, gold, ore, & other precious metals & stones— recontextualised through themes surrounding sexuality, the occult, taboo, & ancient rites. Travelling in time & culture / creating an imagery where ancient & modern cohabit.

Portraits, editorials & fashion related features infuse Middle Eastern, Central, & South Asian aesthetics / the layering of heavy, rough & damaged fabrics, knits & treated leathers, with emphasis on materials & textures & their interaction with skin, time, & age / faces & bodies that reveal the story of a lifetime. Underneath the austere exterior lies richness & magic / the most delicate of cloths, fine silks, jewellery, & totems. CHAPTER005’s woman is a fortune teller, a mysterious yet somewhat frightening beauty. carrying within HERSELF forgotten cities, vast, empty, boundless landscapes, the smell of the desert, & the promise of undiscovered land.
