Birth Ι

The artwork " Birth I" by Alex Mylona belongs to her early sculptures, in which she represents human figures and the themes of her work are recognizable. The artist often deals in various cycles of her artwork with the theme of the evolution of life, from birth to death. The larger body of artwork is called "Woman-Gender-Earth" and the repetition of the three words further emphasizes the earthly roots of female fertility and seduction. In " Birth I", the roughness of the material is imprinted on the surface of the artwork, giving the overall composition an even "harder" feel.
