Through continuous exploration and the use of non-conventional painting tools, Eleni Pratsi reinvents her artistic practices and visual language,constantly. As the circle has no end, so and Eleni’s one-of-a-kind compositions reach the infinite, with no second artwork being the same in her art series. Every composition is prior studied and then applied, through specific composition and color systems that the artist has developed. These systems enable the final work to be in a way self-created as it allows the accidental element to exist in her paintings, by trusting the procedure and not altering the end result. As a true Alchemist of color, Eleni creates new color combinations and palettes, defining and enhancing the impact of her paintings. Her best-known works are with sharply delineated shapes with richly painted vivid colors. The circles invites the viewers to go within and connect with their inner knowing, and the colors with their emotions. A universal symbol of heaven, perfection, eternity, protection, the Self and Oneness. The zero point where everything starts and returns to, the circle holds the meaning of life and the creation of the universe.
