Man On Pieces
Vasiliki Siatara 

Description: I created this artwork, with acrylics on a white fabric, exactly like the sheet people set up a bed with. I choosed to hide most of parts of the man I stood up for my picture, and show some parts, that way I create the feeling of a Man Into Pieces, a broken body, a lost mind on sorrow and memory as the body hides on the total dark of those days. The man hides also his face on his hand and the colors are deep intense reds, greens and flesh colors. 

About the artist: My name is Vasiliki Siatara. I live and work in Ioannina, Greece. I am in the forth year of my studies at the School of Fine Arts of the University of IoanninaI have participated in several group exhibitions, inside and outside the university.

Recently I won the Wsa Painting Prize (Winchester Painting Prize 2024, being on the 10 finalists exhibited on Winchester Gallery) My main subject is the person, the child and small daily moments that involve the present with the past and are usually transformed on a white sheet into symbols and images with multiple interpretations.

​I set up a picture, usually with faces and figures from my close family environment (past & present) where they tell the story that each individual will read when they look at them. Every kind of emotion that a person can feel defines my subject matter. Painting with acrylics and markers on sheet, and printmaking methods such as woodcut and intaglio are the main body of my work today.
