Konstantin Danilov

Konstantin Danilov (b. 1979, Moscow) is an artist relocating to Athens, Greece in 2022. He was one of the pioneers of the burgeoning graffiti movement in 1990s Russia, and the experiences of working with color and shape in urban space still inform his work. Now, he associates himself with Color Field painting. He also makes prints and drawings.

My artworks explores the boundaries and intersections between the inner and outer worlds: whether inside the mind , in the human psyche ("Borderline states" project), in social environments ("Integration" project), or in the relationship between people and nature ("Limits of intervention" / "Memory of matter" projects). I am not interested in open conflict itself, but rather in the subtle tensions that arise at the points of contact between these spheres: between the conscious and the unconscious, the natural and the technological, the personal world and the collective. These transitional zones often contain the seeds of conflict. In my paintings, I bring together abstraction, figurative hints, and semi-abstract landscapes, creating my own unique visual language. With its help, I can talk about both personal experiences and things that are familiar to many people.

Color in my practice s...

Independent artistic practice since 1997. My practice developed through street-based work, mural projects, and later studio painting, with a continuous focus on color, spatial perception, and environment.
