In Vally Nomidou’s work, the young flesh dries up, dies, becomes hard and fragile and reveals a nature without any intermediate states (such as disease and decay). The posture of the body manifests this nature, hiding the possibility of acting, like a snapshot that has been captured. At the same time, this little existence with the slight crouch, under the building blocks, seems to bear the weight of the world. And the question is: was this drainage that we see, imposed from the outside or from the inside?
Vally Nomidou was born in Thessaloniki in 1959. She studied Painting at the Athens School of Fine Arts with professor Demosthenes Kokkinidis (1978-1983). She continued her studies at the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London with a scholarship from State Scholarships Foundation (1983-1984). She teaches as an assistant professor at the Department of Fine Arts and Applied Arts of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. Nomidou is a founding member of the artistic group INDOORS (2007) together with artists Kassi, Politi and Christea. Since 2010, she is a member of the artistic group INDOORS + (where artists Kavvatha, Stamatiou and Argyri were added to the first formation of the group). Her works can be found in important public and private collections. She lives and works in Athens.
