The Antiquities Series
The Antiquities Series is a body of narrative works that reinterprets imagery from ancient Greek art through a deeply personal lens. For the visual language, I draw inspiration from classical Greek pottery, adopting its stark contrast of black paint against the warm tones of red clay. By pairing antiquated forms with contemporary messages, the works evoke a sense of continuity and timelessness, a dialogue between past and present that reinforces the story.
Lapith
Inspired by one of the most renowned episodes in Greek mythology, the rivalry between the Lapiths and the Centaurs, this illustration reimagines a scene from the Temple of Zeus at Olympia. Rather than portraying the Lapith woman as frightened or helpless, she stands defiant, pushing her attacker away. She rejects shame and victimhood, embodying resilience, self-possession, and the strength to protect herself.
“Stop Feeding The Pariarchy!”
This drawing is a cry against regressive laws stripping women of their reproductive rights in the United States and across the world. It fuses the myth of Medea with the brutal reality of forced motherhood, recasting it as a sacrifice to a cruel and insatiable God. Under these conditions, motherhood is not a choice but a weapon, wielded to break women’s bodies and spirits. The imbalance of scale underscores the power dynamic: the woman is made small, diminished, her will erased.
“Mirror, mirror”
A young girl examines herself in the mirror. Reflecting on the fragile gap between who we are, who we believe ourselves to be, and how we are perceived by others, this piece questions whether the mirror shows truth or only an echo shaped by memory, emotion, and external influence.
Initiation
This project reflects on the stages of a woman’s life. At the center, two young girls stand on the threshold of change, guided into life’s mysteries by a group of older women, carriers of experience and keepers of secrets. The work seeks to evoke both a sense of community and an undertone of unease, as childhood fades and new beginnings emerge.
Misophonia, 2025
Misophonia is a condition characterised by a strong negative emotional response to specific, commonplace sounds, distinct from a simple dislike of noise. The word comes from the Greek words misos and phōnē, meaning “hatred of sound.” A woman shields her ears from two small male figures playing flutes. Her calm, composed expression suggests a quiet defiance. This is a woman who chooses to listen to herself and move to the rhythm of her own inner voice, unapologetically and with grace.
