Enter a space where art, science, and spirit are looking for quiet harmony.
Where the precision of chemistry meets the chaos of intuition—and creation becomes a kind of meditation.
Welcome
My journey began in the realm of Industrial Chemistry and Design, but over time, it unfolded into something more fluid, more personal. Now, as a self-taught artist, I work across media—wood, metal, fabric, watercolours, acrylics, oxidations, and collage—guided as much by curiosity as by accident.
Each piece begins with a question, not always one with an answer. Inspired by the structures of the natural world, cognitive science, and the invisible forces that shape perception, my practice explores the subtle energies that move through us—unseen but deeply felt.
There is a kind of alchemy in the making: a surrender to chance, a dialogue between material and moment. The result is a visual language that balances logic with feeling, order with openness.
From my studio between the islands of Aegina and Amorgos in Greece, I invite you to pause, to look, and perhaps to feel something that resonates beyond the frame.
About
Yanis has a broad interest in the materials he uses for his creations. He has worked with wood, metal, fabric, glass, and is always on the lookout for new materials and new combinations. In painting he works with watercolours, acrylics, oxidations, oil, collage… and almost anything he can put his hands on, which can fit the works.
His scientific side has been engaged in an ongoing work in progress dealing with various theories around Cognitive Science and Psychology, Quantum Physics and Biology, String Theory, Holographic Theory, Space and Water. He ponders and researches on how these theories can be expressed from an artistic point of view.
Inspiration is drawn from the implications of these theories irrespective of whether they have been accepted by the science establishment and / or have been proven to be correct. And, of course, from some very favourite artists, who have functioned as masters through their work and the heritage they have left.
The aspect of randomness is hugely important in his work, and he encourages it. He looks for the accidents and what these can offer to the work. He values the process of creation almost as much, if not more, as the end result, which, in many ways is as ephemeral as the process itself. The artwork is the accumulation of all the experiences as they have been shaped, formed and finalised. That is how they exist in the given moment. Once finished, the piece belongs to the past, to a Yanis from the past, and thus he is already working on something else.
