In this exhibition Jo Dounis delves into the realm of 3D. Dounis, known for her signature styles, that of fluid art and of textured art, which featured in her last 3 solo exhibitions, is astounding us all with an unexpected array of sculptural works executed from wood and mixed media elements. Venturing passionately beyond her comfort zone with each solo exhibition, she demonstrates a swift evolution in her artistic journey and mastery across diverse mediums.In this body of work, Dounis focuses on wood which she rescued from various locations and in some cases, even countries. It revolves around the concept of giving new life to what was abandoned or destined to be destroyed until Jo saw something in them which she then brought back, thanks to her artistic intervention. Each sculpture has a story to tell - where it came from and how it was rescued, or even what she saw as she lovingly set about reviving it.
We can observe Dounis’ evolution in her art, particularly in some of the pieces, where her painterly style is applied directly to these complex and intricate pieces of wood. However, most importantly we see passion and whimsy oozing out of these sculptures, and Jo asserts that these sculptures came so spontaneously to her, a natural progression in her journey and a collection which she thoroughly enjoyed creating.The opening hours are:Mondays - Saturdays from 06:00 till 12:00.Sundays from 07:00 till 12:00.The opening of this exhibition will be held on the 21st of June from 19:00 onwards.More evening hours to be annouced weekly.
