Apnea no 8

Apnea is a series of paintings created in 2019-2020 to capture a unique atmosphere of the Spetses island by a Polish painter residing in Greece, Aleksandra Osa.
The word Apnea stands for lack of air, inability to catch a breath and absence of wind on the sea.

Aleksandra visited the island in October 2019.
“In my latest series – Apnea – I intent to visualise my impressions of the island of Spetses at the very end of touristic season. I found this place incredibly silent and calm. In my paintings I attempted to express the feeling of stillness and timelessness I experienced."
