Born in Athens, Greece, Katia Varvaki is a contemporary Greek artist with long experience in descriptive art and some involvement with comic drawings. She makes acrylic and oil paintings, drawings, small sculptures and mixed-media constructions from a variety of materials. Katia Varvaki’s most recent work includes mixed-media constructions of wooden beds, paper and plaster, and oil paintings on canvas. The oil paintings depict views of a garden during different seasons of the year that are inhabited, though not inspirited, by human figures, particularly children. The figures are surrounded by a host of symbols: keys, ladders, clocks, birds in trees and children on branches, nests with hatching clocks and farmer’s markets selling time. The planes of color also serve as levels of time in a poetic version of the space-time continuum. Whether recollecting autobiographical memories or staging the images of dreams, the artist traces the levels of time and transports the observer through magic, myth and enigma to another reality, one divorced from the present.
