In love with a dinosaur
View through Europeana Collections
In the artwork " In love with a dinosaur" Niki Kanagini develops the motif of a dinosaur against a monochromatic background, facing different directions and axes. This composition is part of the broader thematic category of "Manuscripts" which certifies the artist's interest in personal visual writing. The artist herself referred to these works as "visual texts" and considered the viewer as a potential reader. Her compositions contain elements of symbolic surrealism as she attempts to express her social critique regarding the destruction of nature and the role of women within the context of traditional gender roles.
