ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In Greek slang, pakou means obedience. I have no idea why it's called that. Locals say the chapel answers their prayers. Be that as it may, it is located in an enchanting spot on the Greek island of Syros.

Born and raised in Athens, I started to paint soon after obtaining my diploma in Graphic Arts. I first exhibited in 2010 among established artists, in "35 artists exhibit their works on Global Poverty" at Technopolis in Athens. I moved to Syros island in 2013 where I am now the founder and owner of Plastico café-gallery, an alternative meeting place for artists, musicians, writers and friends. During the pandemic and confinement, what started as an exercise of calmness and self-concentration, was to evolve into personal artistic identity and the creation of a new body of artwork. "Spiros does not follow the traditional style of chiaroscuro - there is none of that in his work yet with a limited and subtle colour palette his work maintains depth. Importantly, when viewing his artworks, one becomes aware of the absence of shadows, purposefully done to create the feeling of timelessness. In the one painting he unexpectedly paints a horse, out of place, out of time, a dry well but somehow the horse was still standing, seemingly in slavery, timeless and still." Sharon Harvey Curator
