About the art
Artist statement
Kleopatra Moursela's work is focused on painting - a direction with various engagements, references to primitive theorems but also technological achievements. Her paintings consist of colorful units, dynamic forms that "float", coexist, and interact with each other. Squares, quadrilaterals, and interrelated shapes form images of a multifaceted reality: a visual alternative to the world.
The viewer seeks to find semantic reasoning and outcomes: they all make up, a cosmic patchwork in an attempt to speak of another aspect of reality - an obsessive or compulsive direction. Dynamic rectangles refer to solid algebraic and mathematical equations; pieces of a textile; or carpets that grow symmetrically or heterogeneously into space. As fragments of a folklore artefact that consist of optical squares of the same reality, symbols, of the subconscious. A natural or an artificial dialogue of color intensity, a painted whole made of pure pigments. Subject to the academicism of the traditional painting practices with harmonious ensembles, vertical sections, strict angles, warm squares linked to dark quadrilaterals. Kleopatra Moursela's work has references from Impressionism to Abstract Expressionism and neo-geometric, minimalistic abstraction.
