Flisvos is a greek word that means ” the soft sound of a small wave heating the shore”.
These series of drawings were created during the artist residency at Les Tilleuls Etretat. They are inspired by the ocean , the cliffs and the landscape of Normandy in the north of France.
This diptych draws its inspiration from the striking landscape of the falaises d’Étretat in Normandy, where cliffs and natural arches meet the vastness of the ocean. In the first drawing, the iconic arch frames a serene nocturnal scene. The round moon hangs in the sky with its soft light mirrored in the water by a round rock with a similar shape. This symmetrical composition highlights the harmony of natural forms through the repetition of circular shapes.
The second drawing transforms the same setting into a surreal, enigmatic space. A white veil hangs from the arch, its fabric billowing gently as if belonging to an intimate interior space rather than the open cliffs. The juxtaposition of the natural and the domestic blurs the boundary between interior and exterior, reality and imagination, creating a sense of mystery.
