Athenian Artist Anna Samara To Launch First Solo Exhibition in New York on June 12

Greek artist Anna Samara will launch her first solo exhibition, titled 'Orion', on June 12 at Hyacinth Gallery in New York City's Lower East Side. The show features new oil paintings created over the past year, drawing from thermal imagery, hunter vlogs, online archives, and digitally altered source material to explore themes of observation, vulnerability, and the shifting relationship between hunter and hunted. Samara, who studied at the Athens School of Fine Arts and completed a residency at Vermont Studio Center, describes the work as a meditation on how images move between digital and physical space, inspired by the myth of Orion.
