Eugenia Apostolou

Eugenia Apostolou turned the humdrum glow of Athens’ nightlife into oil on canvas, painting bars where the neon hit skin like a second shadow. She caught the exact moment a woman’s wrist tilts under red neon, the veins almost glowing against the counter. You’ll see why if you stand in front of Red Light District at the Municipal Gallery of Larissa; the paint’s still sticky, the light still bleeds.
