These are some of the hauntingly beautiful
images that make up Pelagia Kyriazi’s latest exhibition “The Dream and the
Familiar”.
Themes of solitude, loss and an underlying
sense of foreboding are echoed throughout the collection now showing (June 2013) at the
Cultural Foundation of the National Bank of Greece.
In this collection, which spans work from 1973 to the present, images are sometimes outlined clearly but often the subjects
are elusive, asking us to study the jewel like swirls of colours or canvases of shadowy black until we
gradually recognize a shape or form.
Kyriazi’s work is very much a dialogue
between artist and viewer. Nothing is made too obvious and no conclusions are
drawn. Instead, we are invited on a journey of discovery through the masterly,
fluid worlds of the dream and the familiar.
