Tablinum: Marie Perrakis would underline her research to the discovery of the “Human Limits” set from the actual society. Her inspiration source for those paintings was the Zhan Yimou’s film: “the course of golden flower“. Her paintings evoke an introspective work done by the artist to fully understand the “human limitation”.
Angel Swing is an emotional play represented by warm colors as red and yellow tone, their twister melting pot make an emotional ballet as like to express feeling that is imprisoned within us . this feeling wouldn’t express a sentimental emotion but explain something that can’t find freedom in every human.
Limits is an art work that could evoke many suggenstions: dreams, play feelings, but if the work is observed with attention we could understand a metaphysical description of the emotional limits. The dark background is our unconscious and our soul where live all our thoughts, that are imprisoned in the cages. The cages are the personification of the limits that society places on individual preventing them from living in total freedom.
