Description

About the artwork:Konstantinos Michalos belongs to a new artist generation, where personal expression prevails over a stylistic proposition, and thus his artwork is more empirical than depicting a certain technique. He expresses through his paintings his psychological drives as well as his philosophical, spiritual and social concepts.

The artwork Internment 2: There are phases we feel strong, even invincible. But since life structure is porous and we are vulnerable, there will be upheavals, and gaps, and we will feel trapped and anxious. ‘Anxiety arises from a transformation of the accumulated tension.’ ‘The ego is the actual seat of anxiety.’ Freud was interested to discover this aspect of our psychology throughout his life. Extreme anxiety makes us feel like prisoners, out of self-control, dominated.
