The softness of the human body, the echo of a drape of fabric, the presence of what is there and what has disappeared, captured in lush marble, with a simple curve, an arc, a dip.
Christina Bertsos, whose early work as an artist was in the world of high fashion design, has a profoundly intimate and intuitive sense of the human form. Though abstract, her sculpture evokes the richness of the human form in a way that is both mysterious and aesthetically pleasing.
