About this work
Overview
Created in 1983 by Greek artist Theoharis Mores, this untitled work is part of the collection of the Museum of Ethnography. Executed as a rapid sketch, it presents a loosely rendered interior scene populated by five figures. The artist’s signature, "T. Mores," appears discreetly in the lower corner, confirming authorship.
Subject & Meaning
The composition depicts a modest interior space where five individuals are arranged in various poses: one seated on a chair, another standing while grasping a small object, and the remaining figures positioned in a casual, scattered manner. The informal arrangement suggests a moment of everyday activity, inviting viewers to contemplate ordinary human interaction within a confined setting.
Technique & Style
Mores employed quick, uneven lines that convey a sense of immediacy, as if the drawing were a preparatory study. The wobbly strokes and lack of detailed rendering emphasize gesture over precise form, creating a spontaneous, almost sketch‑like quality. This approach highlights the artist’s interest in capturing movement and presence rather than finished realism.
History & Provenance
Since its creation in 1983, the untitled drawing has remained in the Museum of Ethnography’s holdings, where it is displayed as part of the institution’s broader representation of contemporary Greek art. The work’s provenance is straightforward, with no recorded changes of ownership beyond its acquisition by the museum.

This guy painted the same blank word—*Άτιτλο*, Greek for “Untitled”—over and over, as if he couldn’t be bothered to invent new titles.
