ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The painting 'Isabelle' is inspired and dedicated to the author Isabelle Eberhardt who lost her life during a flash flood at very young age; at 27 actually. She was a Swiss explorer and author; her books are on my list of favourites since my early youth. She moved to Algeria and lived her life there as a man and also converted to Islam. This painting depicts her perishing in the flood; the figure on the right is her spirit; the painting is of high contrast and intensity. The canvas on which the image is painted was primed in black, also on the sides; the stretcher frame is of 4 cm depth; the painting is signed on the side and does not need a decorative frame. It is ready to be placed on the wall.

Sofia Kapnissi
Netherlands
"In her paintings we see how a hyper sensitive person perceives the world" S. Kapnissi is a trained painter working on revealing the free true space that we all hide within and that gives purpose in life; just like the sunshine does and the warmth of a real home. "My paintings depict the intensity of life; bright colors or black and white, abstract or figurative, my images point at Life and at our humanity that we evoke through beauty." S. Kapnissi (Athens, 1966) studied painting at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Aristotle University in Greece and at the Free Academy of Visual Arts in The Hague, the Netherlands; for a period as a NUFFIC grantee. She is founding member of the Gaidaro group which from 1999-2008 presented projects advocating for wide participation in the art practice and presentation. Painting is her main activity which often expands to engraving, textile, video and text. Website:
