What I can see
This work is a composition with folklore characteristics and consists of pebbles on concrete. The upper part is a pebbly mosaic and the lower part is exposed concrete that includes human figures in motion. The whole work consists of 8 folds. Only one side is curated, while the back side is not. Many find this work original due to its unusual style and form. On the other hand, many believe that it lacks imagination and find it simplistic.
What I can't see
It was created by Vangelis Galinos, who donated it to Thessaloniki on the occasion of the 2300th anniversary of its founding.
