Greece Colours: No.1 The Layered





Shiftazine recently ran a short series of spreads looking at the diverse colour palette of Berlin. 
Now shiftazine turns its eyes to Greece and the colours of this archipelago (a Greek word which was the original name for the Aegean Sea). 

This wall is like a snap shot of the Greek psyche with the layering of imagery that in someway resonates with the past, present and maybe future of this land of continuity.
 From the sepia tones of photographs of ancestors to the spray can colours of the now ubiquitous graffiti, a unique palette is created.
