About The Artwork
Only shards remain of Euripides’ tragedy Cretans. In the most common version of the myth, Minos says that the gods have granted him kingship and that a magnificent bull will emerge from the sea to prove that this is the case. He then prays to Poseidon, who promptly sends a bull. Yet contrary to his promise to the god, Minos does not sacrifice the animal to Poseidon but keeps it. Infuriated, the god makes Minos’ wife, Pasiphae, desire the beast. She makes the inventor Daidalos her accomplice and the latter builds a wooden cow. The queen slips into the cow, the bull arrives, and the two beget a monstrous child called Asterios, the Minotaur

At "Synergy1973" organised by Glyn Hughes,who provided me with the canvas, I displayed my first painting,"Magic Moments" .Realising that as a painter to earn a living I had to conform, decided to go into the world of fashion (I studied Fashion design and Art at De Montfort Uni.) and paint when I was financially comfortable, so money would not dictate my Art.I operated a casual-wear co.using my own registered labels(Zapata,Rollers,Genesis) which I exported all over Europe. My base until 1999 was Cyprus.In 1999 I moved to Romania.In 2004 I sold my Fashion co. there ,returned to Cyprus and started creating a series of paintings. 1)Escape of the Gods,1973-2007(This work is presented in a book that I published in 2008) 2)Greek Tragedians and Comedians,2008-2015 3)Poetry meets Art,2016- 4)Small and spontaneous,2016- 5)Homo Erectus,2018- 6)Photo Art,2018- In my paintings I give my everything,I study the subject well and produce no more than ten works a year.
