Anastasia Mastrakouli

Anastasia creates typography by incorporating the naked human figure. These naked silhouettes form gestures to create each letter of the alphabet by being pressed against glass covered in water, coming closer or further away to make parts of the body form a letter. These images alone are amazing to look at as they individually are their own work of art, even when taken from the sequence. These figures seem very mysterious and are somewhat sensual, whether it be intended or not.



These images have inspired me in my work as I want to capture the body and am interested in how we can use movement of the body to express ourselves. This body of work is a perfect example of this. Here are a few of my favourite images as individuals.
