Crytical text by greek artists curator Georgia Trouli

With the renowned Italian song ‘Felicità’ as our basis, we will be creating works and
hosting a unique experience in Rome.

The word ‘Happiness’ is an oft-said word, a much-discussed concept, both ordinary and complex, not amenable to specific definitions, not to experimental documentation. It raises several questions as to what it actually is, how it is actually experienced and approached, both by individuals themselves and by the theoretical disciplines that have discussed it, such as philosophy, psychology, and theology.

Is happiness a subjective state of being, subject to personal value judgments? Is it an
emotion, a mood, or an experience? Is it an aim, a desire, or a utopia for some people, while also an everyday experience, a state of life for others? Are there only happy moments, or can happiness become a permanent state? How does one define the presence and absence of happiness?

Aristotle and Plato discussed the concept of happiness…

…with the former speaking of the highest ‘eudaimonia’ and bliss, a synergy with the will of God, separating it as a
concept from ‘happiness’, which he considers perhaps accidental and temporary when compared to ‘eudaimonia’. Plato, on the other hand, defined happiness as one’s ability to see the essence of things. Did he believe that we would find the essence of human happiness if we could identify the miracle of life.

Religions and other philosophical systems from the East believe that achieving
happiness requires a constant struggle, which includes meditation and discipline. It is
said that one achieves absolute happiness when one ceases to focus on the past or the future and simply exists in the hear and now. This state of permanent happiness is called “enlightenment”.

In any case, we will have the chance to feel these happy moments during the group
exhibition to be held during Easter 2025.
