Tia Koulianos
New York
Emerging artist, Tia Koulianos, has used her profound spiritual journey to express the Spirit and her connection to the higher self.
MessageEmerging artist and spiritualist, Tia Koulianos, channels her art work due to a near-near death experience which awoke her connection to the Divine. While learning to balance her life with illness colors became part of her spiritual language. Chanting, toning and meditation are part of her process as much as is the element of play. With oil paint, acrylic, oil pastels and drawing she focuses on figurative, abstract and the natural world in her work.
Koulianos was born in 1969 in the New York City Suburbs. She lives and works in White Plains, NY. Her Father was an art teacher at a Scarsdale Elementary School. Her Mother is a Columbia University English Literature graduate and author. Koulianos has studied sculpture (Under Sarah Katz and Barney Hodes) and design at various schools throughout New York City. Her work is in private collections in NY, CA, SD, NC and Sweden.
Statement
I am a self taught painter, spiritualist and emerging artist. With a focus on the female figure, my work reveals our humanity but also our intrinsic divinity.
I paint to feel the connection to my spirit and source, sharing the energy of love and unity. My creative process is akin to being in a flow state directed by my higher self. Oil paints and oil pastels communicate, they are alive and the energy flows between us. This form of co-creation awakens awareness and intuition. I channel healing energy to invoke a sense of oneness by using words, chakra colors and frequency. Which generates speed in my process.
The work evokes memories and emotions, and aspects of being human. Such as connection, understanding and love. The female figure, her empowerment and beauty are highlights in my work. Her many facets explored and honored, her place always assured.
