Art House · Papadiamanti Street, Skiathos
Art reborn from wood, glass, metal and stone.
The gallery of self-taught artist Kostas Zouchas in Skiathos Town, where materials others would throw away are given a new form — alongside works by local and Greek artists.
“The appreciation of simple material makes us value the world that we live in more.”

03The artist
Kostas Zouchas
Kostas Zouchas is the creator of Reborn Project Gallery. A young, self-taught artist who uses wood, glass, metal and stone as raw material, sometimes individually and others connected in a harmonious combination, with each material giving its charm to the others.
His philosophy is based on reusing material and items that would seem totally useless in the eyes of anyone else. He observes, collects and creates, implementing a kind of direct recycling. The items are “reborn” into a new form in his hands.
04The gallery

A new art space in Skiathos, showing unique works mainly by local artists.
