Artist Name: Ellie Lasthiotaki

Painting comes to me from an inner desire to self-express, to capture what goes beyond the tangible and past the obvious. My art is about everything that influences my life, a place, a person, a thought, a feeling of love, anger or exasperation, chance and light.

Chance and light are important components of my paintings. Capturing the light sometimes by chance is my inspiration. The light which can be both a wave and a particle, this quantum entanglement of nanoscale particles fascinates me. The light itself is the magical component in painting, many times trying to find its way to suppress the darkest thoughts in life. I am interested in creating different emotions to the viewers. Water and liquid of any kind is our existence, without it there is no existence, therefore, liquid along with the chance of any kind is integrated into my art to take me and the viewers to unknown paths, to unexpected surprises, to provoke the emancipation of the mind, to lead to places that cannot be seen with bare eyes. The texture of materials, the brushstrokes, the drippings, and the colors let the viewer free to use his own imagination and give his/her own interpretation.
