Her work reflects her visual experience of the world and of the many landscapes she finds herself in, often driven by a fascination for colour.

The etchings chosen for this exhibition however, are probably more symbolic than much of her work, and are more preoccupied with an inner landscape, the expression of intense emotion weaving its way through furious scribbles, graffiti-like hearts, physical spaces and almost indecipherable writing.

Once upon a time, time
had a woman's shape,
and men could lay an hour-glass on the sand
and stop time horizontally with love, still,
or set the sands in motion at their will
to fill an hour before the next oasis.
Clocks stop for no man,
only for themselves, at the
wrong times. Helplessly
we revolve on a clock face,
making love clockwise,
timing eggs.

‘Time and Motion’ Sylvia Kantaris
