Artwork's dimensions without its frame: 60X80X2cm Two little girls in ballet costumes and large feather wings are sitting down relaxed. The background depicts a landscape in ocher colors, emphasizing the white figures of children in the front. The composition aims to evoke in the viewer a sense of innocence, hope - a path to light. The Italian art critic Marta Lock writes about this painting: "In the canvas Innocence, Ageliki Alexandridou addresses one of the themes she loves most, that of childhood, a magical age in which purity and spontaneity have not yet been eroded by everyday life, by the events and vicissitudes that cause adults to change their point of view and approach to life; in this canvas, the two little dancers look curiously at what is around them, unaware of how much those wings worn for a dance recital correspond to their essence, to the ability to observe everything with the gaze of wonder, of surprise, of confidence that everything will be fine and that the future will be wonderful. Emerges Alexandridou’s tendency towards Symbolism in this canvas, as portraying the two girls with angel wings by placing them outside the context where they should be, the stage, seems to suggest to the viewer how similar the children are to the angels who silently accompany us on our journey through life..."

“I love painting because it's a silent, but universal art. It speaks though all the languages of the world at the same time. It can be translated into quality time, development, expression, serenity. A whole world where everything is possible... ... More than anything, I love portraying the beauty of human beings. To capture the expression, the look. My goal when I paint is to convey the magic I see to the observer. I keep looking, searching, experimenting, since I believe that art, as much as every kind of knowledge, is an internal and eternal processing... " Ageliki is a realist artist from Greece. She grew up at Thessaloniki and after graduation, she studied Fashion Design participating as a designer at Dimitreli's Organization's fashion show at the NTNG (June 1991).
