ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Whitney Houston from the series“My Life With The Wave” You’ve seen them, but have you really looked at them? Most female celebrities have been viewed and portrayed through the eyes of male artists and photographers. This new series tells the story crafted from a woman’s point of view, depicting the “Wave” in its different moods through pop culture and inspired by Octavio Paz’s intense love story “My Life With The Wave”, which was narrated from a male perspective. These images, of well-known celebrities, taken from album covers and magazine articles, were originally created to idolize women as objects of desire. I rebuild them from that “old society standard”, layer upon layer, to bring out some of the myriads of elements that were once omitted and forgotten, to showcase each woman’s multifaceted psyche as driven, dynamic, beautiful and seductive but above all powerful, as all women are! The series has further evolved into light-boxes that are meticulously worked on both sides of the canvas, to reveal numerous details when using different color lights.... thus mirroring life.

“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.
