Peter Speliopoulos

PETER SPELIOPOULOS

 draws its name from the Greek word for ‘chasm,’ a term often associated with mythological caves, particularly those linked to the underworld. This body of work bears a personal significance for the artist, as it references his surname ‘SPELIO,’ which translates directly to ‘cave’ in modern Greek, originating from the ancient Greek ‘σπήλαιον’ (spelaion).

Inspired by caves as portals between realms—connecting the underworld to heaven, serving as sanctuaries for Gods, and embodying sacred spaces—these works symbolize creation, the cyclical nature of life, and rebirth. Speliopoulos, influenced by Jung’s portrayal of caves as ‘alchemical vessels, symbols of the unconscious,’ crafted this series in black stoneware ceramic. He initiates each piece on the wheel, then meticulously hand-builds and sculpts the intricate adornments.
