Entering the Mythmaking Studio of Antonakis we find ourselves inside a dollhouse built from studies of rooms, landscapes of fear and authority, where animals, monsters, boys, and emperors wander. Each work is a surface upon which something returns, a scene restaged, inhabited by beings that dwell at the thresholds of body, gender, and identity. We do not know whether it is haunted or archival, a refuge or a nightmare; yet memory and imagination, fear, desire and obsession share the same space, and the stories are rewritten slightly differently each time.
