The route of quest of truth is arduous and requiring. It presupposes a race of self-awareness to be able to reach our own truth and race of self-denial to approach and to feel the truth of others. It presupposes love for our Being and the Being of the
Universe. It presupposes an open heart to the Past and Present. Because only by forgiving the past and by loving the present we will be able to deal with sanguineness the day after…
Lina Pigadioti - Tzima knows very well this route. She chose
it consciously as a human being and she expresses it with passion but also with piety as an artist. Vigorous breadwinner and constant student of school of life quests, observes, listens carefully, surveys, participates, lives, feels, rebels, enacts ,
remains silent, sinks into herself, communicates, enjoys, experiments and finally imprints her experiences onto papers. Not randomly …
Lina discovers the spring of her creative ability (Animus – Anima, 2009), becomes reconciled with the past
and present at a vision of a personal development (Yesterday … Today … Day after … 2011), releases herself consciously to random (Mind Views, 2010), converses with her poetic view of decay (Lightness of Being, 2011), explores scriptures and letters in
a need of presentation of the soul (Cursive & Magic Squares, 2012), approaches experientially and conceptually the force of numbers and concurrencies (Healing Trinity, 2013) and desperately seeks the pure light begging for the regaining of our lost
consciousness (Do Air Your Dirty Linen!, 2013).
The people who surround her, the places, the moments, the objects, existent or imaginary, vivid images or universal memories act as points of reference and sources of inspiration in her creations,
which reflect this fruitful route of her conscious quest. Not randomly…
My route on the works of her last series (fthor-ah’s) (ah-lee’-thi-a) was almost a metaphysical reading of lines, letters, colors, technique and materials she used for
their creation. Observing them in order and listening carefully the palms of her heart at the stages of their realization, I experienced the sequence of emotions that dictated their flourishing. From the first work which constitutes the matrix to born
the rest till the twentieth where the goal is festively achieved through the white light, the gold, the brown, the ochre, the black and the red as blood mark, converse in a race of revolution and collective reaction but also action for the relief of
weights that facilitates the boost.
This sensation of takeoff, of flight, of freedom, of non- weight resulting from a sweet maturity is the aftertaste I was left with by enjoying them. Lina Pigadioti -Tzima, today, presents in front of us
bravely her need for the quest of truth, exorcizes the past leveraging the decay and seals the upcoming redemption recognizing the intervention of divinity from another dimension… I wish her from the deepest of my heart to continue her upward development
in all levels, so that she will be able to transfer us through her works vivid emotions as the fruit of her achievements.
