In the book Στίγματα Πορείας Αναζητήσεις στην Τέχνη και την Παιδεία, critical questions about education and art arise from the didactic and research work of the sculptor Theodoros Papadimitriou. 
The text investigates the origins of the concepts of art and education, proposing the hypothesis that these concepts were "invented" at some point in human evolution to address the survival needs of our species on Earth. 
This invention aimed to foster quality symbiosis, managing violent instincts through creative and loving principles, facilitated by educational rituals or initiations.
Education is viewed as the management of human energy, measured by its ability to either create or disrupt the connections within the chain of culture, which spans survival, symbiosis, and living. 
Art transcends its role as mere entertainment or comfort; it cultivates sensitivity and consciousness regarding life's critical issues, reflecting both its tragic and comic dimensions.
