PANDORA’S RED BOX 100 cm x 120cm 03/2019 ©
The painting illustrates a surreal imagery where, if seen from a distance, the captivating, gentle face of a female appears to draw the viewer closer to it. A surrounding black stripe dotted in gold and silver sheathes the image as if to protect it from a band of hurrying black silhouettes anxious to enter the foray. At close inspection something magical comes to view; the face is made up of hundreds of dark grey humanoid figures rushing everywhere in a world of their own, but going nowhere. They chat with one another and hasten about in harmony. Graceful performers with stretched out arms dance with joy, while others stride with arrogance and never want to slow down. Then there are those that cling to power with brilliant red boxes full of secrets, and, if unleashed, could trigger startling results, offering hope for some or anguish for others! One can hide a stone among stones and man among men but not so in Pandora’s Red Box where there is no escape or a place to hide. Andreas C Chrysafis

About Andreas C Chrysafis About Andreas C Chrysafis – Author / Artist / Writer Andreas C Chrysafis is a prolific artist, a published author and a writer of over four hundred articles and a recognized Saatchi artist. His vivid coloured paintings touch the human soul and certainly spark pleasure and marvel but also generate mind stimulation. Many of his paintings spur inquisitiveness, interpretation and are sold to collectors worldwide. He held a number of solo exhibitions and his inspiring work has been attracting attention in the art world and galleries but also the press where many of his paintings have been published in magazines and newspapers. One of his paintings “Karagiozis” now permanently hangs at the prestigious National Cyprus Art-Folk Museum in Nicosia and “N’oublie Pas Paris” in memory of the Bataclan atrocity; it’s displayed at the French Embassy in Nicosia. Andreas, was born in a small village in Cyprus to Greek parents and began painting at a very young age. At the age of 12 he moved to the UK where he finished his studies at Holland Park Comprehensive in London. While at school, he was accepted to enter the esteemed Royal Academy of Music in London but declined. Those experiences of tender years, helped to develop his character for what he is today. An ex-Associate Member of the Chartered Society of Designers (ABID) by Royal Charter, he practiced his profession as an architectural designer for most of his life. Without a doubt he’s a complex man with an inquisitive mind that always aims for excellence in everything he does. He is credited with a UK Patent; a thinker, an environmentalist and an advocate for Human Rights, Equality and Rule of Law. As a Canadian and a British citizen he lived most of his adult life in Vancouver, British Columbia and London as well as Cyprus. Married to Eva he now spends most of his time living in the UK and his studio in Cyprus painting and writing novels. A.C.C www.facebook.com/ACChrysafisAuthor www.facebook.com/ACChrysafisArtGallery
