For his solo exhibition at the Point Centre for Contemporary Art in Cyprus, Michael Anastassiades created a conceptual and metaphoric landscape of non-functional objects and pieces of furniture that border on sculpture. 

The materials, forms and titles make reference to the sociopolitical events that defined Cypriot society back in the 1990s; statistical data, geographic conformations and personal memories are translated into sculptural objects in which abstraction and descriptiveness meet. A book was published to mark the exhibition, with texts by writers Emily King and Eleni Xenou exploring the interweaving of politics and aesthetics in Anastassiades’ oblique take on contemporary tensions.
