I made Antefix using wax (for candles). Since I like ancient antefix it was very likely for me to make an contemporary antefix with a different shape (like a child). This is why my antefix has two different "eyes".
I took my lessons in buy sculpture (2007-2008-2009) courses in plastic, metal, bronze sculpture and marble sculpture at the Laboratory of “Nicholas Perantinos" Museum (Athens and Paros, Greece). My teacher (Eydokia Papouli) show me the way to figure the shapes of the sculpts I wanted to create.

•On 2016 I created “Antefix”, a sculpt that represents an ancient antefix. I am very fond of ancient history and specially antefix. It is an outdoor "jewellery" of the house!
Antefix was originally used in ancient temples and afterwards in renaissance and Neo-Classic buildings. Edge bricks kept roof tiles in place.
