Eye of the Earth
80 x 100 x 2 cm
Acrylics on canvas. Finished with a high-gloss varnish.
In Greece, there is a talisman against the evil eye — perhaps you’ve seen it in souvenir shops, its deep blue eye staring back at you.
Growing up, I wasn’t drawn to it. But now, far from home and longing for Greece, I find comfort in anything that connects me to that beautiful country.
This painting is my abstract interpretation of the talisman. Like the original, it carries a protective energy, inviting the viewer — and your home — to feel safe, grounded, and shielded from negativity.
