My grandmother used to tell us a story about a woman who couldn't have a baby. She cried and cried and kept her tears in a bottle. At some point of the story she drank the tears and got pregnant. That's how the story begins and what remember of it, as it was the most intriging part of it. The woman is depicted on a bed next to a thick wall with a window, like the place where my grandmother used to sit while telling that story.

About The Artwork

Andromachi Giannopoulou was born in Australia. She went to school in Athens, Greece, and studied Painting in Athens School of Fine Arts. She was awarded a scholarship for studies in Art and Design from the State Scholarship Foundation, and studied Graphic Design and Communication at Chelsea College of Art and Design, London. She lives in Athens and works as an art teacher. Her work is the result of a search for the nature of personal experience, by exploring the boundaries between "real life" and memory and on the other hand between "real life" and dream. The border between sleep and alertness, repetitive dreams and space in dreams are some of the elements that fascinate her. It seems that all too often those images that emerge from the subconscious, revolve around a common axis which is the oppression of female sexuality. However she works without an obvious theme, letting the images and feelings reveal all those inevitable distortions of perception.
