EXHIBITION LOVE
Eyddos is a contemporary art project driven by passion, a deep desire for transformation, and love.
We believe in art as a way to build the present and in using our voice in harmony with movements like LGTBIQ+, feminist, and anti-racist.
At Eyddos, people inhabit the works, occupy the space within them,
and become part of the project that was built with so much love.
The desire to transform this statement piece into an amulet, into protection for those who, by transforming fragments of individuality,
decide to celebrate all communities, the flags of all of us as a second skin, in an EYDDOS.
Thanks to the fusion with artists, the material transforms into an affective revolution, into these works of art to WEAR.
