My subject matter is the essence of the world I live in: dystopia. Inevitably, every individual witnesses the devastation of modern society. Instead of paying tribute to nature, we opt in favor of worshiping materialism, forgetting our origin. I see in my artwork the today’s crisis; I see a nature that has sunk into the dystopia that human has imposed, remonstrating the contemporary world. A piece of art owes a social concern to its viewers, evolving each and every one of them personally. Man needs to be in contact with the equilibrium of nature, and that is why my landscapes form an uncomfortable notion to the viewer. And it is exactly this, the disarray of dystopia that sows doubt about the lost unification between human and the environment. Yiannis Devoidness Kalyvis
