Cycladic Sculpture

Its best feature is the white & brown cliffs that encircle it. They have been naturally sculptured by the waves and the wind over the years and they create one of the most unreal sceneries that you will explore with the horse.

Crafting a Cycladic idol figure from recycled materials can be a delightful and eco-friendly way to commemorate your Greek island holiday. These iconic sculptures, with their minimalist style and abstract forms, have inspired artists for millennia. By using items like old cardboard, foil and air dry clay, you can create a unique piece that captures the essence of the Cycladic tradition while also giving new life to materials that would otherwise be waste. It's a creative and sustainable way to bring a piece of your travels back home with you.
