Art completes Nature

“ὅλως δὲ ἡ τέχνη τὰ μὲν ἐπιτελεῖ ἃ ἡ φύσις ἀδυνατεῖ ἀπεργάσασθαι, τὰ δὲ μιμεῖται.”
“Altogether, though, art completes what nature cannot, and imitates the rest.”
—Aristotle, Physics, II.8

Welcome!

I’m Danis Dedes, and here you can get to know my poetry, writing, games, and other art projects I self-publish.

I take Aristotle’s idea as a starting point for my own work: art is a way of expressing, extending, transforming, and completing what already exists. Through words, images, melodies, and crafts, I explore that process in my own way.
