YANNI FLOROS
Adelaide artist Yanni Floros’ new series of hyper-realistic charcoal on paper drawings celebrate the female form as landscape. Attributes such as endurance, patience, courage and bravery are represented in this ongoing series and investigate the female form and landscape as a harmonious and symbiotic relationship.
These works are inspired by the sand dunes of the Sahara desert, the waterfalls of Niagara Falls, snow covered mountain peaks of Alaska and the puissance of the River Seine. The mettle, and fortitude characterised in these works serve as homage to the timelessness of natural landscapes and the female form.
