The ongoing restoration of the Greek Acropolis feels like an eternal DIY project—centuries of missing pieces stolen or eroded, leaving history in a constant state of repair. Scaffolding clings to the ancient stones, a modern intervention against the slow decay of time. Amidst this grandeur, a ramshackle construction shanty stands in jarring contrast, its weathered boards and temporary presence underscoring the absurdity of the scene. The Acropolis, a symbol of timeless civilization, now shares space with the fleeting and the makeshift—a reminder that even the most enduring legacies require patchwork and persistence to survive.
