Rebuilding Urban By MAKIS KYRIAKOPOULOS Acrylic on paper 2022-2023
ATHENS, GREECE 80cm x70cm In my art over the last two years, I capture transitional moments among spatial layers inhabited by plants, rebuilding urban landscapes evoking a conflicting atmosphere between comfort and unease. The presented work takes shape as a paradox. With a fixed decision to use blue, I began with a rough stroke that I didn?t want to alter until the end. The result of this process is a depiction of a forest in the rain, featuring a technological column-totem, and an immediate burst of color. Those elements persist, reflecting an obsession for the piece itself, until it`s completion.Born in Patra, Greece in 1975. He works predominantly in Digital Arts.
