CONTEMPORARY ART FROM TOP INTERNATIONAL EMERGING WOMEN ARTISTS
Our emphasis is on our artists being Intimists. That is we only represent artists who work alone without assistants, who's work has intimacy, that we can feel the person behind it, the touch and the closeness, someone's hand, that individual touch. As communication now days is all on the phone and the Internet, we represent artists who reach out for something more personal.

He has made solo exhibitions and participated in many other group exhibitions and international competitions, in Greece and abroad (Italy, Germany, Spain, New York, China, Serbia, Bulgaria, London) and seminars. She lives and works in Thessaloniki.
"I am an artist whose artistic research ranges from painting to engraving. My work delves into human perception of landscapes expressing specific mental situations. They are interpreted psychoanalytically as "internal landscapes" or landscapes of the human soul. My paintings manifest internal dark landscapes in which beams of light invade via them. Thus, they reveal the figures besetting with the present situation of existence through the beholder’s eyes. My interest focuses on search of excessive truth which lies beyond our journey to material. The earthen colours and bold writing display my world showing a theme with rough and imposing touches integrating the surroundings either as internal or as abstract ones. All in all, the body of work is a meditation close to the brevity of human existence." Katerina Tsitsella
