MAKING PEACE WITH ARCHWAY

Elthorne Studios
London, 2021

Tackling trauma and memory, ‘Making Peace With Archway’ is part reenactment, part cleansing ceremony. Elthorne Road/Estate previously being an epicentre of trauma for Costi, he seeks to re-correlate his feelings of the area. Archway and CSM now provides the throughway to a better more peaceful future for John, as the artist says, he wants to ‘Put the negative experiences I had growing up in the area to bed’. Utilising motifs taken from his Greek Cypriot heritage and history as an armed robber, Costi seeks to make sense of his turbulent past to gain a more grounded future.
