A special gift of unique symbolism was given by the wife of the Prime Minister Mareva Grabovski Mitsotaki to Princess Kako of Japan, during their meeting at the Maximos Palace.
The two ladies had the opportunity to chat and establish their shared love for culture, tradition and craftsmanship. The particularly warm atmosphere between them was sealed with the gift that Ms. Mitsotaki gave to her guest. This is a unique work of art, crafted by visual artist Ayumi Paul who hails from Japan.
The work-ode to the cultures of Greece and Japan is entitled “Song of Mount Parnassos” (“The song of Mount Parnassos”) and aspires to unite the two cultures, with references to their emblematic mountains, Parnassos and Fuji.
For the Japanese, the tree is sacred and “holy”. As the artist Ayumi, who was present at the meeting, said, she was inspired by the energy of Parnassus, which is transmuted into the song captured in her work.
The Japanese mission was thrilled by this highly symbolic gift.
Princess Kako, in fact, expressed her admiration for the works of art that adorn the room where they met at the Maximos Palace. Mareva Mitsotaki explained to her that this is an initiative that aims to highlight and promote Greek artists, through periodic exhibitions organized in the emblematic building. He told her, in fact, that the existing exhibition aims to raise awareness among visitors about issues related to the Climate Crisis.
