Having had over thirty solo shows Alexandra Spyratos is a household art scene name.
With a distinct style that utilizes gold leaf in her motifs that depict the beauty that is african wildlife, Alexandra Spyratos is a breath of fresh air.
Spyratos has had shows at Nairobi National Museum, Cat Street Gallery, Laurie’s Fine Art Gallery, Libby Edwards Gallery, Soho Gallery, Watatu Gallery, Art In The Yard, Kasser Rassu Gallery, Imago Mundi, Museo Bilotti di Villa Borghese Rome just to name a few.
Spyratos showcases already covered ideas and thoughts in a new and exciting way with a distinct and unique perspective.
All the larger pieces displayed a powerful use of curved lines, elephant tusks and the hindquarters of the beasts were a consistent theme: almost completely defining the work.
The smaller prints were a favourite, having the potential to make great gifts or mementos.
The pieces on show were amazing and all proceeds of the night were going towards helping the fight against the poaching of elephants.
Her work can be viewed at the Fundi Gallery on Karura Avenue.
