Christos Michaelides

B.1983 London UK. Lives and works in Athens (Greece). Creating art from my perspective is the elaboration of thoughts that cannot be translated by mere eyes but on the other hand may be translated in many different ways.Each individual work goes through stages, a face-off between matter and metamorphosis, from paint as base materiality to painting as imaginative transformation.Creating an anorthodox space, an arena within which a kaleidoscopic array of geometric, biomorphik, architectonic motifs are free to play. Possibly a fictional setting encapsulating random blobs and shaky or exploding edifices

2005 –2010 He studied at the Athens School of Fine Arts, department of painting, under the supervision of A. Christakis and G. Kontaratos.

2008 He obtained an ERASMOUS scholarship from the National Institution of
Scholarships and attended for one term at Slade School of Fine Art UCL,
London, UK.
