“Terpsis” (1990) by artist Froso Michalea (1936-2001) is an early example of the sculptural practice she developed after 1990. Maintaining a special interest in morphology and abstract forms, the artist turns to more dynamic forms, with metal as a main material, while placing emphasis to the relationship of the geometric form to the space. This piece creates a sense of movement which alludes to the diversity of nature, while the incorporation of letters into the basic form of the composition provides a verbal character to it, urging the viewer to attempt to read the letters which form the title of the piece, which successfully describes one of its purposes: the pleasure of the senses.
