From monumental sculptures of wrought iron and marble blocks, to artworks of gouache and watercolour, Mylona’s experimentation with light, shape and volume is evident throughout her work, with themes that include the miracle of motherhood and love along with references to the myths of the ancient Greek world and the spirituality of Byzantium.
