In 2017 I was focused on geometric abstraction intensely, inspired by constructivist and suprematist artists of the Russian Avant Garde. Excited by the ideas of "industrialization" and "machine" - and still am!- I tried to represent machines with various ways. I have always thought of the circle as a symbol of rotation and rotation itself a regular movement of a machine, with steady frequency. Here we can see the machine rotating and transforming red into green or vv. Electric current is the energy that generates the rotation, the electric current passes through the machine and activates it, the sound of the machine can be heard, the viewer sees and hears the machine, becoming this way a part of it. The circle is inscribed in a semi-visible square and there is a cross - the alias of a secret square- inscribed in the circle, dividing it in 4 quarters that also represent the 4 periods of the rotation. Square-Cross-4. Four angles in both shapes, four periods. 1+2+3+4=10, 1+0=1, 1=0. This machine is everything and nothing at the same time.

I am a self-taught artist, based in Thessaloniki and active for the last +50 years. Having started with figurative art, I have been through various styles over the years, Impressionism, Surrealism, Byzantine Iconography, Suprematism, Constructivism. Following a steady course towards abstraction. Lately, and after a geometric period, I am experimenting in an even more abstract style that involves liquid acrylic pigment poured over a surface - preferably package paper- and free intermixing of the colours with flow lines formation, often exceeding the painting surface bounds. Mainly inspired by Phenomenology and the ideas of how consciousness functions, my current work can be characterized free and abstract with no use of brushes or other painting tools. The flow of the liquid colours denote the continuous flow of the outer stimuli of the human consciousness, represents the creation of the cerebral time and tries to access pre-consciousness human stages. The images substitute the language and help experience a mystical way to approaching answers to questions dilemmatic, tricky, or bearing no answers at all! My influences include Kazimir Malevich and Lyubov Popova, Byzantine icons, Giorgio Morandi, Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin, the brothers Limbourg, the architects Georgii Krutikov, Mies van der Rohe, Aldo Rossi, Lazar Khidekel, Iakov Chernikov and also, the Japanese culture and its insights like Wabi-Sabi or Suiseki and ceremonial practices like Chanoyu. Finally a big influence is Jazz music, and the atonal music of Iannis Xenakis.
