On Thursday, the 19th of January 2006 in the art gallery
ASTROLAVOS artlife, (Herodotou 11, Kolonaki, tel: 210 7221200-4,
fax: 210 7221304, opening hours: Mon-Wed-Sa: 11-15.00, Tu-Th-Fr:
11-20.30, www.astrolavos.gr), opens an individual exhibition
entitled Wandering by Nancy Sousoula.
An array of works will be presented; works mounted on the
wall, mixed techniques, installations, artifacts and artistic
jewellery, everything in harmony with the strong feeling
of "journey" and "traveler". These works
are of such proportions that could easily be carried inside
any luggage.
For the artist, the notion of journey has been approached
through the dreamy atmosphere of fairytales. A "Young
Prince" has taken shelter inside the artist's universe.
His journey through emotions and senses fills up the artists'
psyche with materials such as: p.c. wires, nylon, beads,
colored paper, etc. Evidently, the striking power of color
most certainly transmits positive energy. The juxtaposition
of sensitive motives against harsh materials provokes the
look and the attention.
Caring for a flower, meeting a friend, wondering about life;
all the above transform these materials into poetic creations.
Without any stylistic cliches or limitations Nancy Sousoulas
artistic jewellery resembles a kind of painting that can
also be worn.
Consequently, along with the painting creation one wears
the matching mood, like a smile upon the face.
Exhibition open to the public until 7th of February.
