4me4you Features - ‘the three graces’.
Artists: PAULA TURMINA
Paula Turmina (b. 1991) is a Brazilian multidisciplinary artist, living and working in London. Her art envisions a post-apocalyptic world where figures blend into nature, exploring humanity’s connection to the land.
4me4you recently enjoyed a visit to Unit London Gallery, where a group exhibition titled "The Three Graces" was on display.
In Greek mythology, the Charites, also known as the Graces, embodied ideals of femininity, fertility, virtue, generosity, joy, and creativity. Traditionally, three of these goddesses are mentioned: Euphrosyne (joy), Aglaia (beauty), and Thalia (festivity). Believed to be the daughters of Zeus, they frequently accompanied Aphrodite, the goddess of love. Throughout art history, these three iconic figures have inspired numerous depictions, spanning from ancient times to the contemporary era. There symbolism resonates with universal aspects of human experience, such as the pursuit of happiness, admiration for beauty, our connection to nature, and the significance of creative expression. To honour Women’s History Month and the onset of spring, Unit London Gallery curated a modern reinterpretation of this timeless mythological theme in a new group exhibition titled "The Three Graces."
