conceived, visualised and directed by Stephanos Droussiotis

Following Image One and Image Two, Image Three completes Droussiotis’ trilogy on human kindness. The work is set in a space suspended beyond reality, a dystopian afterlife. The stage is covered with upside-down ceiling fans; their blades forming a threatening metallic landscape, a garden of stillness.

As the Man reluctantly enters the sealed space, he encounters the Woman on a cold steel table. Their encounter is brief, almost ritualistic. When she leaves, he remains alone in this allegorical limbo, confronted with the quiet weight of his own existence.

In Image Three, the trilogy’s recurring themes — memory, presence, and the boundaries of consciousness — find their final echo.

Image Three is the third and final part of a trilogy on human kindness, distinguished by a specific creative experiment: each piece was developed, rehearsed, visualised and brought to the stage within just fourteen days from conception. This bold but deliberate compression of time was an attempt to work with complete freedom; to create instinctively, allowing the subconscious to lead the creative process without censorship; a study on the spontaneous creation of the unfiltered mind.
