The lighting was overseen by the internationally acclaimed Eleftheria Deco.
The new lighting of the Souni temple highlights in a unique way the archaeological and architectural importance of the monument, giving it new dimensions.
Special care was taken to ensure that the visual experience of visitors to the archaeological site during the day would not be disturbed. All the elements of the installation and the lighting fixtures were placed in such a way that they do not obstruct the navigation and do not cause visual disturbance to the visitors.
The illumination event will close with a concert by the distinguished Greek composer Stavros Xarhakos, who will present a musical composition that pays tribute to the cultural heritage of Greece.
The concert will be accompanied by leading Greek artists, such as Dimitris Bassis, Iro Saia, and Zacharias Karounis, a multi-member choir and a string and wind orchestra, under the direction of Stavros Xarhakos.
