In Preta, Limniou channels the visceral textures and rhythms of Greek coastal life into a luminous, layered composition. The title may recall local flora, terrains, or folk narratives, though Limniou never fixes the narrative. Instead, she composes evocations, using expressive, sometimes naïf forms that dissolve and coalesce in soft-focus washes. The light shimmer on canvas suggests heat, memory, and the persistent echo of island life, while her palette of soft blues, ochres, and warm neutrals conveys both temperature and emotion.
