Adara by Savvas Metaxas
Artist notes:
'Adara' is a word used by those living in the mountains and describes the natural phenomenon where the fog comes almost out of nowhere and starts sitting above the mountaintops, and as it comes lower it engulfs the villages and the people. I have very vivid memories of this 'Adara' while i was spending my vacation time as a kid in my grandmother's village, in the mountains of central Greece. And to this day, every time this 'Adara' arrives i feel amazed by it. I wanted to describe - with sounds - this phenomenon from my subjective point of view as i was experiencing it. Slowly evolving, with otherworldly quiet around, with an essence of fear and unpredictability , anticipation for it to end, and then the return to the previous 'normal' situation.
Not being able to see or navigate around but knowing that this is only impermanent.
