Her oeuvre elegantly captures profound human moments and everyday narratives. As a mother of four and an ardent lover of nature, Paliou meticulously observes and poetically chronicles symbolic milestones of the human condition—motherhood, childhood, and adolescence—while simultaneously exploring the omnipresence of nature. Whether found in the subtle corners of urban parks or unfolding majestically in mountainous and maritime landscapes beyond the city, nature is ever-present in her work.
A recurrent theme in her art is the dynamic interplay between humanity and the natural world. She contemplates how technology has alienated younger generations from the natural environment, in contrast to nature's remarkable capacity for "self-healing" and its power to provide refuge from the relentless pressures of contemporary life. These ideas form the foundation of her most recent body of work, in which she delves into the restorative and meditative qualities of the natural world.
