ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first woman. Her name means the one who bears all gifts. She was created as a punishment to mankind and was given a jar (box) containing illness and hardship. She was told to never open it but her curiosity prevailed... When she saw all evil coming out she tried to close it trapping Hope inside. Her box is a metaphor of evil. Her myth begs the question of why evil exists in the world. Last year I started working on a series based on Greek Mythology. The recent events of COVID-19 promoted me to complete Pandora next. Let's blame it on her, but don't forget there is still Hope inside. Finished with resin for a high gloss effect and with drops to look as if it's still wet. Ready to hang on stretched canvas.

“Now that’s what I call art!” — Master Photographer Roy DeCarava, National Medal of Arts 2006, describing Tina Psoinos’s work. Multidisciplinary Artist and Fine Art Photographer Tina Psoinos’s extensive body of work showcases an alternative view of the world she sees, one that blurs the borders of reality and imagination. Intrigued by the ephemeral, ever-changing nature of the street art scene, Psoinos creates urban inspired art using mixed traditional and street art techniques with street art aesthetics while sneaking in personal references. Her portfolio includes a number of ongoing series that range from minimal to very complex imagery. Works explore female rights, empowerment and equality through pop culture, as well as love through social media. Drawing on powerful imagery, she uses these concepts to also create and develop inspired site-specific installations. Based in NYC, Psoinos has won numerous awards for her artistry and is currently shortlisted at EMST The National Museum of Contemporary Art in Athens Greece for her Empty Pro(e)mises proposal. Her work is in private and public collections around the world.
