Greek Australian collage artist Vasy Petros has captured the landscapes of Australian in her upcoming exhibition A Perfect Place as part of the Creative Gippsland Festival.
The self-taught artist began her journey with collage purely accidentally. By fateful chance, Vasy got to experiment with collage by helping out her daughter with a university assignment. She found creating images using collage relaxing and therapeutic and decided to create some pieces through some photos she had of landscapes.
With no formal training, her eye for colour and creating these pieces shows her understanding of art is inherent. Her journey into art has seen her stick with the medium of collage for now, and create pieces on a small scale.
The exhibition A Perfect Place will take place at the Inverloch Community Hub, 16A Beckett Street, Inverloch, VIC, from 1 to 31 May, Monday to Friday 9.00 am to 5.00 pm. You can get up close and personal and meet Vasy and discuss her work with her on Saturday 11 May.
