Χειμώνιασε στην Ικαρία και κλεινόμαστε στα βουνά και στις αγροτικές και τις άλλες δουλειές μας και τα βράδια βλέπουμε τα βίντεο στο κανάλι του @opsikarias στο youtube που σε μερικά από αυτά είμαι μέσα κι εγώ. 😉 Δώστε προσοχή στην ωραία μουσική! ❤️
.Και για όσες και όσους βρέθηκαν τυχαία εδώ, τις/τους χαρίζω τους Καταλανούς Trio Feta που παίζουν ένα μπιτάτο Ικαριώτικο χορό που τον λάτρεψα και τον χόρεψα κι ακόμα τον χορεύω! Μπράβο Trio Feta!

Drapetomania or Paradise invented

Oh no, it’s not about that old «runaway slave syndrome» devised for obvious reasons by American pseudoscientists in the mid-19 cent. Those bad connotations forgotten today, the word seems to have taken up a new meaning, but still, yes, it remains a ‘syndrome’ alright, though this time a cultural, not a psychological one, to be sure. Just google it up and you will see. Given that, I took the liberty to update the definition by adding a few words. It goes as follows:
Drapetomania: «an overwhelming urge to be free, to find Paradise; if nessecary, to invent it.»
However, the point of this article, my readers, lies not upon terminology but upon photography. Because, in my opinion, the choice of photos I am presenting to you today possess one unique feature: a perfect, subtle balance between the animate and the inanimate, between the organic and the inorganic, and if you wish as well, the finitness of the self and the infiniteness of the cosmos. Having taken part myself in shootings like this in the past, I know from first hand that during the process (as long as the photographer is gifted) there is point when all forms merge into oneness and all feelings disappear.
Looking at certain scenes with half-closed eyes blinded by the merciless glow, you can’t really tell if the human is rock or the rock is human (or animal). It’s a moment of trance and transition, a moment when I can’t help but agree with Albert Camus:
«The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.»
But I have to restaint myself and not let my words shadow the work of the artist. Behold therefore now Elena’s appasionados por la libertad. Look at them as they ‘draptsise’ to another world, neither christian or pagan: the world of crystallic rock surfaces, deep clear water and scorching sunlight. It’s a paradise neither lost, nor won. It’s a paradise invented. 😉

[Oxford Dictionary]
Aye! That was a challenge! They said that my posts based upon and inspired from Instagram shots taken in Ikaria are ok, but they’d rather see instead my own old or newer photos time and again, because, as they said, they are dowed with a quality different from I/G. And that quality is, as they said again, that they are fundamental. I am not really sure of the meaning and I will certainly not bother anybody with guesses. Whatever they meant, I straightforwardly took it as a compliment, and as a gesture of thanks, I am assembling this post with the idea of fundamentality flashing in my head, and as I am doing so, I realize that I know no other with this attribute (i.g. fundamental) than freedom, nature and womanhood.
Therefore, behold my friends and supporters, under a title borrowed from one of my albums on Flickr a total of eighty-eight (including the header) photos about freedom, nature and womanhood, the last two interrelating, interchanging, interacting. There is also some sport and a bit of farming and other stuff too, ok? Being fundamental doesn’t mean being always coherent, I think. 😉
NOTE 1: The first rows are thumbnails from my Flickr, while the rest come from our blogs, Eleni’s and mine.
NOTE 2: Comments under this post are disabled. You may visit the photos in the source instead. They contain so many additions, links and comments, that each one makes an article of its own. Check them out and feel free to add your comments there.
NOTE 3: I have marked in color the thumbnails opening to the most significant pictures, according to my opinion.
Big thanks.

Δημοσιεύθηκε: 8 Ιανουαρίου, 2021 Filed under: aegean, Greece, Ikaria, Ικαρία, ικαρία, Personal, Uncategorized | Tags: angelos, artful, facebook, free expression, Greece, Ikaria, χαρά, Αιγαίο Πέλαγος, Ελλάδα, Ικαρία, Ικαρία μου όλα, ελευθερία, playful, post traditional 8 Σχόλιασήμερα θέλω να σας πω για έναν φίλο που τόσο συχνά κοινοποιεί στο φέησμπουκ αναρτήσεις της Ελένης και δικές μου, κι έτσι μου φαίνεται πως είναι ώρα πια για μια μικρή ανταπόδοση. Δεν ήξερα στην αρχή πως να το κάνω, ώσπου προχτές, σε ξαφνική επίσκεψή στο σπίτι του, διάβασα κάποιες δημόσιες αναρτήσεις στο χρονολόγιο της σελίδας του, και αποφάσισα να τις δημοσιεύσω στο μπλογκ μου.
Είναι πρόσφατες, σχεδόν απανωτές, γραμμένες στο διάστημα Νοεμβρίου 2020 – Ιανουαρίου 2021, κι εγώ (to agrimi) από σας τώρα ζητώ να πείτε ποια από αυτές σας άρεσε.
Εκείνη που άρεσε σε μένα, για όσους είναι εξοικειωμένοι με τη δική μας μυθολογία που είναι κι αυτή μικρό κομμάτι της γενικότερης μυθολογίας του νησιού μας, είναι προφανής, γι’ αυτό δεν θα την πω, για να μην σας επηρεάσω.
Ο τίτλος του άρθρου, όπως θα δείτε παρακάτω, είναι δανεισμένος από τη δεύτερη ανάρτηση: «Εικόνες μιας σύγχρονης λαογραφίας». Αυτός ο τίτλος μου φάνηκε πως τις καλύπτει όλες κι ομογενοποιεί την ετεροκλητότητά τους. Δεν είναι άλλο παρά δεκαέξι ρεμβασμοί, αυθόρμητοι, και φαινομενικά εντελώς τυχαίοι. Και όμως, για μένα, ήταν δεκαέξι ανάσες ηρεμίας μέσα στο άγχος και τον ζόφο που περνάμε.
Ευχαριστούμε για όλα Άγγελε – που είσαι αυτός που είσαι
και που δεν έχεις πολλούς followers
αλλά μονάχα φίλους – ανάμεσά τους,
χαρούμενη για μια φορά,
κι εγώ.

Drop the top and free the nipples ⭕ ⭕

«While media portrays women’s bodies as objects intended for sexual pleasure, many are speaking out against this injustice by standing with Free the Nipple to create equality between men and women and to fight against oversexualizing women.»
«This movement promotes freedom for women to be able to make their own decisions about their body based upon their own level of comfort. It is important that women conceal their breasts because they want to and not because of the pressure of societal acceptance and shame.»
«While this movement has been increasing momentum, it is now gaining popularity within other countries and now college campuses, both of which are crusading against the oversexulization of women and even rape culture.»
«While many want to assume that the importance of normalizing women’s nipples are just a cry for sexual attention, it’s more than that for many reasons.»
«In essence, this movement has everything to do with gender equality, and social equality, but for whatever reason, people still aren’t taking women rights seriously enough.»
«It is time for women and men to speak out against the injustices made against women, not just within social settings but online as well in order to end the oversexualization of the female body.»
«What inspires women to submit their naked photos online? The short answer is – Control. The ability to show yourself on your terms, how you’d like to be seen, free from the distortion of someone else’s viewpoint and the sanitizing of Photoshop. For some contributors this is an exposition of pure art. For others it’s a rebellious gesture, erotic expression, a desire to be desired, or a cathartic process. And for everyone, as we’re told every day, it’s just hugely fun…»

and against femicide. I love you all, be strong, be real. ♥️
