The exhibition – as its title suggests – is dedicated to “LOVE” which endures over time in whatever form it takes. Whether it is romantic, companionate, maternal, paternal, fraternal, friendly, etc. We know that: in the field of Psychology, “love” is defined as a multi-faceted, dynamic and evolving emotion that includes a wide range of emotions, behaviors and beliefs that give rise to a person’s need to connect with another person by developing bonds of strong affection, care, protection, warmth, understanding, acceptance and respect for each other.

The connection of two people, through “love”, catalyzes their mental health, emotional well-being and resilience. Cultivating a “healthy”, stable and time-resistant “love relationship” between individuals works beneficially, therapeutically and supportively towards individuals, catalyzing their psyche by filling them with positive feelings of joy, happiness, satisfaction and closeness. Cultivating, as well as maintaining a “healthy love relationship”, on the other hand, requires effort on the part of individuals, who should not only have quality time in the relationship, but also be “emotionally available” by demonstrating in practice their care, interest, care and devotion.
