Cob is pleased to announce our particpation in Artissima 2025 held in Torino, Italy this coming Autumn. Presenting a new body of work by Greek artist Elli Antoniou in the Monologue/Dialogue section of the fair.
Elli Antoniou's work delves into the multifaceted concept of ‘the virtual’ and the boundaries of sensory experience. Employing a hybrid technique of gestural drawing with abrasive tools, she subtly alters the surface of steel panels, transforming their reflective properties. The resulting metallic drawings and sculptures, animated by natural and directional lighting, evoke fluid cosmoi in perpetual motion. By drawing with power tools, Antoniou’s process becomes both physically demanding and evocative, blending violence with precision, tactility with illusion.
