"Amantha Tsaros, Ipnee, 2012" by Amantha Tsaros
“‘Ipnee’ is a nonsensical title I use to describe this gaggle of bounciness cavorting across the landscape. We are catching only a snippet of their movement across a plain – in the way that joy often just comes in a quick flash of well-being. My current work focuses on depicting our internal experiences. My monotypes include shapes and marks which recall spirits; forces that carry us through our days or challenge us mightily. In this case, I am presenting a lighthearted image to convey the weightlessness we feel during very happy times. When you are just so delighted that you feel as if you are floating.” - Amantha Tsaros
