Visual Arts Portfolio

  • Styliani Nomikou
Unconventional pieces of art always catch my eyes. Art for me is beyond reality; it is where the extraordinary meets the ordinary. The uncertainty and mystery gives me a magical feeling. I enjoy expressing myself in my own enigmatic terms; where nothing is obvious or easy to understand. My work is ambiguous and involves references to the inner mind. That’s why my main influences were Surrealist artists such as Lucy McRae, Hans Bellmer and Sara Lucas. Every project has its own concept that I analyze in depth and learn new techniques with different materials. I enjoy investigating the idea behind an artwork and try to find out what the artist wants to express. To sum up, my work can be described as equivocal, because on the one hand it wants to expand but at the same time it creates a sense of encirclement.
