John Katis: A first generation perspective
Mortar, pestle and copper |
The Greek national anthem remembered
|
John Katis chose his mother’s mortar and pestle and the Australian copper to express the ‘two dimensions’ of his life as a migrant coming from Greece as a child in the 1950s. A less tangible object for John is the very strong memory he has of verses of the Greek national anthem, sung here by Tony Pyrgos.
