Happy Magazine | Kallopi Lemos

Artist Kalliopi Lemos features in Happy Magazine.

 

"Kalliopi Lemos is a Greek-born, London-based artist, who is still working on the fourth and final addition to this collection. The artist explains that the unrealistic size and the fact they are made from steel contrasts with our preconceived ideas of these feminine items of clothing. Instead of being soft, pink and warm, they are strong, cold and powerful. Their curvaceous shapes fulfil one expectation, while the fact that such a strong metal has been shaped so fluidly defies another. The sculptures sit in their space outside the O2 almost as armour, ready for battle."
