Dimitris Theocharis b.1987 in Greece. He received his BA in Mathematics from university of Patras, and BA in Fine Arts from University of Thessaloniki.
Through his three works Helices 1 & 2, Callisto, and Mr. Frank’s schedule, Dimitris Theocharis (Livadia, Greece, 1987) is questioning whether it is possible to think in a space and time scale beyond our immediate experiences. Theocharis is fascinated by the impossibility of simultaneity. Take a diamond storm on Jupiter for example: the moment we observe it, it may no longer be active on Jupiter. Can we still say that the storm is taking place ‘now’? Theocharis references Galileo who confirmed that the earth is not the only center in the universe, “and neither are you […]. Still, the exhausting abundance of diamonds exploding from clouds on Jupiter doesn’t make their scarcity here any less of a thing.”
