Eva Divari became well-known with the work “WHIRLPOOL” for which the Historian and Art Critic Athina Schina gives the title “Movement, Flow and Radiation” where the painter, as she mentions, divides space in a cubist way, analyzes it and transforms it structurally, balancing on edge her theme in an orbit of circular course. Also the Art Historian Bia Papadopoulou mentions that the work of the artist, in spite of the intensely energetic atmosphere it emits, it preserves a romantic aspect as it emphasizes the wild game of man with the undisciplined and uncontrollable nature, celebrating at the same time the sense of freedom.
In her work “SHIPYARD” Eva Divari states a part of life and experience where we are surprised by the combination of a masculine strength with a feminine sensitivity full of colours and light! In this mature work, the Art Historian Leondios Petmezas gives the title “Imposing presence, Grandeur, Brilliance”. He excels the technique she follows, touching the supreme realistic depiction with expressionistic deviations and with her designing ability, the deep knowledge of her subject and her poetic view, the space of the shipyard and the port excite her thematically, experiencingly and finally artistically.
