Yiannis Moralis, a Greek artist, created this artwork titled 'Nude.' It has these flat geometric shapes in black, white, grey, and red. We see this form of the female nude through a very specific cultural lens. In the Western art tradition the male gaze has often objectified the female body. Moralis lived through periods of significant social upheaval in Greece, including wars and political instability. His art often reflects a search for harmony and order amidst chaos. Consider how the faceless, almost abstracted figure allows the viewer to focus on form, color, and composition rather than individual identity or emotion. Moralis invites us to contemplate not just the body, but the very essence of form and being. This artwork encourages us to reconsider the way we perceive the human form and the cultural values we project onto it.
