At the centre of the painter’s practice are human figures – usually young women – presented through a filter of interiority. With a highly detailed realism, the faces and bodies of her figures seem almost photographic. However, the atmosphere of her works, within the watery element, undermines the “objectivity” of the representation. Water is not just a landscape; it is a living, pulsating presence, breathing along with the human body.

The title of the exhibition “The Wonderful Waters” – borrowed from Kalvos – echoes the artist’s existential sensitivity and does not simply describe the experience of diving; it defends the act of returning to the self, just like the sigh after a deep submersion: relieving, regenerative, true.
