Description
Introducing a mesmerizing contemporary abstract painting that beautifully merges the vibrant shades of oxidized turquoise and warm rusty brown, like the beautiful weathered doors in greek aegean islands villages Inspired by the wabi-sabi philosophy, it embraces the beauty of imperfection and the passage of time.
Elevate your space with this artwork, a harmonious blend of color, texture, and artistic expression. Immerse yourself in its captivating energy, allowing it to become the focal point of your interior design, infusing your surroundings with a sense of creativity and aesthetic charm. The painting is more beautiful in reality, as photos cannot accurately render textures and colors depth and contrast.

Presentation

Artist Statement:

Through my artworks I want to convey the message that there is beauty in every aspect of imperfection. My paintings are about transience and the beauty and authenticity of age. 

My work narrates "once upon a time there was…" a worn out wall with peeling paint, peeling wallpaper or torn posters of past performances, an old door, an abandoned ship in the ship graveyard that rusts helplessly... Materials that were once closely associated with people, that accommodated lives, that allowed dreams to travel, that achieved goals. 

In my works, Time operates as an equal artist. Time, with its many layers, aged, rusted, and apparent worthlessness, creates the substance for the material that will be sculpted, eliminated or accented, so that the true image to be expressed is revealed.

Education:

I have studied painting for 6 years in "Corfu Art School" under the tutorship of M. Pieris, a renowned Greek painter. 
I also hold an MSc in Work Psychology (UCL), a Diploma in Educational Psychology (UCL) and a degree in Psychology (NKUA).

Artistic Influences:

My paintings are highly textured, they have rough, uneven surfaces and crackled areas. I often incorporate into them pieces of old wallpaper, aged fabric,ripped paper, vintage maps and found objects. 
I am intrigued by the rough surface of natural stones, the beautiful colors of patina on vintage objects and the sophistication of old, weathered walls with decaying finishes, where layers of paint peel away to reveal older paint underneath, creating a beautiful contrast between the lighter and darker tones.
