Cerulean Sky is a metaphorical tableau that portrays the universal principles of freedom and self-determination. Inspired by the Greek islands in the Aegean sea, these fragments explore geographical perspectives in shaping national identity and the infallible Hellenic spirit for exploring new horizons.

The concept of independence is mostly about freedom of choice in living an independent life. Horizons remain constant. From anywhere in the world, they do not change no matter which ocean you are gazing at. They symbolises peace and stability in a world facing chaos.

The blue of the sky visualises blue sky thinking, a term that fosters a positive expression of hope and resilience.
