Original artwork description:
Inspired by Byzantine monogram letters. Hands, feet, beaks and tails seem to grow in them. I can't help making associations with Greek folk tales where heinous acts, dismemberments and cannibalisms are described with horrific simplicity. This is the monogram of a letter which doesn't exist, implying those feelings and brutalities described before.
The background is a collage made of different patterns from byzantine iconography, snake-like paper, etc.
The artwork was exhibited in Crete and Athens in group exhibitions 2022 and 2023 inspired by Ernst Gombrich's "The story of Art" curated by Iris Kritikou.
Materials used:
marker, collage
