Athina Ioannou | ARTIST IN FOCUS

Spread on the walls, pinned, hung or laid on paper, Athina Ioannou’s floating compositions play with light, transparency, rythm and movement. She mainly uses textile: soaked in linseed oil, the fabric reveals the intensity of its colors and becomes a pure expression of painting. Her space-sensitive and minimal practice confronts the viewer with interventions that seem to materialize directly from their surroundings.
