Athens between past and present

<p>When I was moving out and selling as much as possible someone came to my apartment to buy my old mattress. On their way out they saw the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CFORBgRp5zf/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">two photographs I&rsquo;d printed and mounted on the wall</a>. They asked about buying them and I decided to give them the one of Saratoga beach. The brush of pastels spread across a sunset beach had given colour to an otherwise empty apartment. It was time to move on. Giving away my DIY print was a great ending for something I can no longer retain. The other print, of Yuki at a pagoda in Japan, didn&rsquo;t seem appropriate to give away and so I threw it out &mdash; a symbolic guesture to move out and move on.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:700/1*EBWdynNuG8mlk_03qUssRA.jpeg" style="height:394px; width:700px" /></p> <p>Stone walking path at the bottom of the Acropolis</p> <p>I&rsquo;ve come to Athens on a class trip with ten other students and my studio professor. We are here as tourists but also researchers, seeking to understand the architecture and archeology of the city and islands in the Agean.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/adventurearc/athens-between-past-and-present-90e0249997bd"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
