Γυναίκα με άρπα is a 1956 by Alex Mylona, held at Metropolitan Organisation of Museums of Visual Arts of Thessaloniki – MOMus.
This drawing shows a woman holding a harp. Her body is made of sharp angles and bold shapes. The colors are flat, like cut-out paper. The artist, Alex Mylona, breaks the figure into geometric blocks. It’s not a normal portrait—more like a puzzle of color. She often worked this way. See how she uses color blocks to build the image. Look up cross-hatching next.
Alex Mylona (Athens, 1920 – 2016) was a Greek sculptor, known for her multidimensional and experimental approach to art.
