The King Drawing

Elena Tsigaridou produces large ink drawings often incorporated with string imbued with delicate observation and romantic lyricism that seek to elicit the sensations, memories and wonder associated with our experiences and encounters. Tsigaridou has filtered her experiences into a personal and contemporary visual language, where a typewriter or a sewing machine hovers on the edge of dream, reverie and myth. These finely rendered images provoke us to look beneath the surface in to the realm of strange alliances, symbolisms and meanings. Her work evokes the private world of personal identity and inner state.
