My sister and I, 1944

The dominant theme in the sculpture of Titsa Chrysochoïdi is the human form, and usually the female figure, which she worked first and foremost in bronze. In spite of the fact that she acquired her early artistic training in the studio of Thomas Thomopoulos, who was associated more with the realism of Rodin, she orientated herself towards the post-Rodin models with which she became acquainted during her stay in Paris in the period 1930 - 1934, when she worked in the studio of Thanasis Apartis; she then studied at the Grande Chaumière Academy. The great influence upon her was, however, that of Aristide Maillol, and this can be seen from a comparison of the sculptures, both as regards the type of the bodies and the postures of the figures, which bear witness to a profound and persistent study of the work of the great sculptor.
