The opening of the exhibition "Silence, Voice, Resonance"

Updated: Mar 4

The opening of the exhibition "Silence, Voice, Resonance" at Chili Art Gallery was a true celebration of art. The space was filled with visitors who came to discover the paintings, photography, digital art and visual objects that make up this unique visual experience. The discussions around the concept of silence, voice and resonance made it clear that art can become a bridge of communication and deeper understanding.


The exhibition, curated by Paris Capralos, highlights through the artists' works the relationship between silence and expression and how communication shapes the human experience. Those who attended the opening talked about the power of the works and the special atmosphere created within the space.


For those who could not attend, the exhibition continues at Chili Art Gallery, Dimofontos 13-15 in Thissio, Athens, 13- 22 February 2025.



The exhibition catalogue is available for FREE, in Greek and English, for online viewing and/or download HERE:

As noted in the curatorial text:

Silence, as the absence of sound, is not a void but a canvas of concepts and emotions. The French philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty, in his work “The Visible and the Invisible,” highlights silence as a prerequisite for voice, arguing that perception is formed through pauses and the disruption of continuous flow. Similarly, Axel Honneth’s theory of social recognition, in his work “The Struggle for Recognition: The Moral Grammar of Social Conflicts,” emphasizes silence as a form of denial of communication, which can function either oppressively or liberatingly.
From a psychological perspective, Carl Jung, in his theory of the shadow, suggests that silence confronts us with the unconscious, triggering internal quests. Voice, in turn, becomes the means of asserting existence, as examined by Hannah Arendt in “The Human Condition,” where public voice constitutes an element of action and self-realization. Resonance, whether emotional or social, bridges silence and voice, making both inseparable from human experience and communication.
