Armory Column III
View through Europeana Collections
The works "Armory Square II" and "Armory Column III" by Peggy Kliafa encapsulate conceptual content with many associations, simple readings and eloquent implications. They are part of a broad series of works under the general title "Pharmakon", which encompasses the whole context of her work both in terms of the development of the idea, as it has a dual interpretation, and in terms of the technical and material background. She chooses as the basic material of her works, the packaging of the medicine itself, the wrapper, the blister and even the pill itself, and composes complex constructions that develop in geometric repetitive formations, where the strict structure, the absolute symmetry and the flawless execution contribute to the creation of an illusionary image with many implications and associations.
