I am like a quirky mute narrator who uses a white canvas, brushes and paint that become my means of communication with the outside world. My involvement in the stories I paint is sometimes as if I participate as the main hero or as a protagonist or as an eyewitness and at other times I give the leading role generously elsewhere, holding only the role of an observer! I place the human form in huge, colorful semi-abstract landscapes. Time does not seem to concern me. In some works, its forms are depicted as an outline filled with various colors and shapes - as if the human form is a 'container' - of emotions, thoughts, memories. In many works, there is a more realistic representation of the human form. Here the heroes live and breathe in a dreamy atmosphere. The markings can be associated with romantic symbolism. Observing my works it is obvious that people are in a constant motion most of the time. They come from somewhere or they go somewhere. Even when they are stable you understand that what they have in mind is the next step. The Present, the Past and the Future are imprinted in their walking, in their course. The human condition - the individual sense of her existence - is a central theme in my work, and stems from my own experience as a Greek of the Diaspora, between the two cultures.

Chrys Roboras is a well-known Greek artist who was born and raised in Australia, and now lives and works for many years in Athens. Her paintings have an anthropocentric direction; she loves portraiture as it gives her the opportunity to study the human soul. She also focuses on the landscape, which is always a painting challenge for Chrys. She studied at Seaforth Tafe College in Sydney, Australia, where she graduated in 1992. She continued her studies in Greece, through AKTO (Middlesex University-England) from where she graduated in 2008 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and Technology (Bachelor of Fine Arts and Technology with First Class Honors). In addition, she studied painting with teacher Tassos Misouras, and Visual communication with Nikos Navridis and Katerina Apostolidou. She has had 18 solo exhibitions; in Athens, Thessaloniki, Paros, New York, Toronto, London, Lugano, Los Angeles, Sydney, Chicago and Brooklyn. Chrys has participated in Art Athina, Revolution Art Fair, Parallax Art Fair, Biennale of Chianciano, Biennale of Beijing, Biennale of Santorini, Scope Art Fair, Red Dot, Design Art Fair, Emerging Artist Award-Dubai, Art Takes Paris, The Artist Project, Art Capital and The Other Art Fair by Saatchi. She has shown her work in more than 70 group exhibitions around the world. Her works have received international awards while many are in international art catalogs for example, the catalogs "International Contemporary Masters Volume 5", "The book Hidden Treasures Art 2014", ArtTakes Miami 2012, 2014, 2015, Create Magazine, Art Seen The Curators Salon, Malamegi Lab 17, Contemporary Art Curator, Contemporary Art Identities.
