Zoi Pappa: The Birth of Beauty by Liceo Magazine
Westerners used to say that beauty was born in Greece. The work of Zoi Pappa may be an example of this. Its surreal universe is built through particles that invite the viewer to approach so much to discover it that it can easily end up plunging into it, as if it were a rabbit inviting its universe of wonders. If the figurative or even the most abstract painting usually shows an image or concept easily apprehensible at a distance, Pappa presents a microcosm that forces us to forget the surroundings to focus solely and exclusively on her painting. Once inside it, we navigate between insects, petals, wings, thorns, but always with enough space to fill with our sensibility / imagination. An aesthetic therapy that can cure any problem that weighs on our soul and leave in it only place for beauty.
This Greek, graduated in Visual Arts from the Thessaloniki School of Fine Arts, is currently part of the Al-Tiba Contemporary Art Project9, an exhibition curated by the artist Mohamed Benhadj, currently exhibiting at the Arteria gallery in Barcelona.To know more about this artist, do not forget to visit her page: http://www.zoipappa.com/
