Originally from northern Greece, I've lived in the US for 12 years and in London for the last 3. Predominantly a self-taught artist, I have gone through several maturation stages of learning to work with materials on one hand and discovering a way of expressing myself that feels comfortable, natural, and deeply personal on the other.
If I could describe my art it would be a pop-art/graffiti version of Van Gogh, though this sounds both vain and simplistic. It is up to people to say, though what definitely unites my work is an emphasis on bold colour contrasts and the simple power of the line in the form of single brushstrokes.
I have concentrated on oils and have studied basic colour and design theory through books and university courses I have taken. I have three degrees in the physical and biological sciences and my work reflects my constant struggle from a scientist's point of view to get my basic facts straight which include the physics of light and colour, and the psychobiological effects of colour on people.
Having kept a keen interest in the countless debates and conceptual plagues of art through the ages by studying art theory and philosophy, I'm able to view my art in the wider context of what is already out there.
My biggest influences are Van Gogh and Gauguin for their innate ability to balance everything in a painting, back in the days of modernism when painting was all about the image. I admire Warhol and Duchamp for their courage to question what is art in the first place, therefore opening new possibilities and outlets.
Enjoy what you see here and keep an eye out for upcoming works. Thank you for your support.
