ABOUT THE ARTWORK

An image from an hypnagogic hallucination. Part of the collection “hypnagogia” Hypnagogia is the transitional state of consciousness between wakefulness and sleep. During hypnagogia, it's common to experience involuntary and imagined experiences. Actual body senses, sounds, conversations, images that appear (rush), just when I fall sleep. I had it since I was a child, I noticed it at the age of 23, and I recently found that there is a term for that experience. I perceive it as a third state of existence (after dreaming), extremely unique, and with a strong sense of delicate equilibrium.

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.
