Paraskevi

Paraskevi’s inherent love for the materiality of color is the driving force behind her constant experimentation, in the pursuit of innovative ways to use color, artistic media, and painterly practices. She has developed her own distinct visual language that allows her to constantly reinvent ways of painting expression and sustainably evolve as an artist.

The Works

In Greek mythology, Iris was the goddess of the rainbow and communication (as a messenger of the gods). My “Iris” is a minimalist (in approximation) abstract (in visualization) rendering of the idea of a deconstructed spectrum of light. An exuberant composition of linear colors, erasing seemingly random curved trajectories. Clean, seamless, intact lines cross each other, creating fleeting connections. To continue …. They have left the rainbow, free now to chart their own course in time. And sometimes they get a little different from each other as they continue their endless journey to infinity.
