Connie Mitropoulos

The Eros of Greek dance Down Under returns to the Image its power as Icon.

My works on paper in the form of drawings or poetry embrace and explore imagination and intuition as a spontaneous act or ritual. Surrealist ideas of play inform my art making. Images created spontaneously (archegenesis) are a way of honouring yuce/heart/soul. The body takes the mind by the hand and the heart leads the way.I create from that which createth me.My works on paper are both a ritual and a record of Soul and its imaginings.
