The painting evokes a sense of place without depicting it literally. Limniou blends pastel hues and tactile surfaces so that every stroke feels infused with light and tactile resonance. In the childlike echo of folk tradition, her figures or architectural forms dissolve into sun-scorched outlines, as if glimpsed through a shimmering haze of summer heat and nostalgia.
A sunlit memory in pigment and pastel: Kolibithra summons the textured essence of coastal Greece, earth baked by sunlight, air tinged with salt, the hush of island life.
