Tecnique: Mixed media (inks, acrylics, gold leaf) on canvas
The title takes inspiration from the Greek myth of Cynara, for the intensity of the colours and the bold sculptural forms represented on the canvas.
Rumor was, Zeus fell in love with a nymph of surpassing beauty, with long ashy hair named Cynara. He tried to seduce her, but as she resisted all his attempts, he became furious, and in a desperate effort to cancel her beauty, he turned her into a thorny artichoke.
1978 Livorno, Italy
Eva Ciuti was born in Livorno, where she attended the “Arti Evasive” atelier. Her technique is characterized by the use of different media mixed together, like oil, acrylic and Indian ink. After having studied realistic representation for years, she specialized on a mixed technique on canvas and paper, dedicating herself to transfiguration.
Greek mythology nourishes and inspires her works, and it is often also a source of inspiration for the titles of her artworks.
