“Parrot” by Violet, 60x30cm.
Paper clay, ink, pastel and acrylic paint on board.
Violet first came to Artbox after losing her mother, and describes her work as a way to “connect with the spiritual world” and see “into the beyond… to see what the other side is like”. Her compositions are filled with cats, faces, animal / plant hybrids, gods, ornaments, mysterious symbols and floating eyes - there are echoes of Ancient Greek and Egyptian mythologies, and her own Greek-Cypriot heritage.
She works prolifically, all with a raw, expressive handling of materials, and her many sketchbooks overflow with imagery: “At 4 in the morning, I just have to start drawing…half of my brain wants to sleep, the other just wants to draw.”
