A few words about my work

Painting with collage has intrigued me from the very first steps of my artistic career.I try to make my passion about Photography and Theatre co-exists harmonically with my profound nead to paint.

The fact that I immortalize certain moments with my camera leads me consequently to the creation of paintings that consists of imaginary images which surround or frame these photos.These sometimes play the role of the main element in the paintings and at times the motivation of the beginning of o new idea.

In general the themes which will attract and stimulate me in order to create a new piece of art are the ones that give me the inspiration to comment social or existence matters as well as to visualize my personal experiences that I kepp taking from traveling.

The artistic movement the final artworks are related to is usually a mixture of surrealism,abstract expressionism,in combination with some futuristic and pop art elements.
