AGNES
The Agnes ceramic wall decoration from Athens-based artist Angeliki Stamatakou emerges like rocks at low-tide—a flattened, salmon-hued matte fragment hand-shaped by time and mystery.
On display as part of the artist’s takeover of Mona’s room 16, this piece channels warm stone under swirling water for a formally unique contrast between motion and stability.
We imagine this artwork anchored in a sunlit hallway painted in pale tones, framed by the homecoming patter of sea salt soaked feet.
Angeliki Stamatakou is a ceramic sculptor based in Athens, Greece. In her series of works, large clay sculptures serve as pure evocative artworks as well as functional pieces such as vases and candleholders, blurring the lines between utility and art.
The meticulous hand-building technique she employs emphasises a hands-on, artisanal aspect to making. This method ensures that each piece is unique and carries the mark of the artist's personal touch.
Themes of movement, mystery, freedom, and security infuse her exploration. The visual narrative mirrors a fantastical underwater civilisation, speaking to spirits deeply connected to the sea and nature.
