About the Item

Canvas calligram very limited 3 pieces edition Piece 1/3 SOLD Piece 2/3 Available upon request 3 weeks creation time Piece 3/3 Available upon request 3 weeks creation time same size The style corresponds to text art created within a visual concept that the artist experiences inspired by the greek visual poet, Simias de Rodes, Asian Calligraphy, Haikus, Haiga, Hieroglyphics, Zoomorphic Islamic texts and Guillaume Apollinaire’s and the damned french poets calligrams. 2019 marble sculpture and greek mythology inspired. The artist’s specialty consists of calligrams or images created out of text achieved in large part by her fascination with drawing. Salas statement is that drawing is a complete art itself and not a procedure. This very limited edition 3 pieces creation represents her interest in paying homage to drawing through calligrams, combined with her passion for greek mithology. In this case, Medusa was the mythological character for the composition and the delicate range of lights and shadows with a pastel delicate color palette. The shape differences in the handwri&ng and variation of values compose the calligram. Patrons/words correspond to ideas to the Gorgona written by her at the instant so sometimes not even her can recall the complete poem.
