About this work
Overview
Δικαιοσύνη -1- Μελέτη is a drawing by Alex Mylona, part of a series exploring the representation of abstract values through sculptural lettering.
Subject & Meaning
The work focuses on the concept of 'Justice' (Δικαιοσύνη), visually represented by a large Delta and the word 'justice' constructed from stacked letters, symbolizing the structural and foundational aspects of the concept.
Technique & Style
Mylona employed a grid system and color experimentation to achieve a balanced composition, testing the interplay between form and meaning. The use of thick black and thin red lines creates a dynamic visual tension.
History & Provenance
This drawing was part of a preparatory series for sculptures that were later realized, including 'Love' and 'Justice', which are displayed at the Museum of Contemporary Art at the Thessaloniki International Fair.
