Greek Artist Nikos Gyftakis, makes an analogy in order to explain his paintings. If you were to stand still in front of the mirror, your entire body would be fixed, with the exception of the flow of energy within you, which he symbolises with arcs and circles in his paintings. Colors and shapes, swirl around the face of his models in a continuous way, rather than the sharper lines that constitute our features..

oil painting work in progress on weld-able sheet. 10x10”. this one is about generational trauma and memory. i found this dead yellow warbler outside of work last october (2025) i later found the sparrow that is the subject of my most recent painting. The yellow bird is significant as my great-grandfather loved birds. his favorites were humming birds and yellow finches. At the time, i was reflecting on my past, and family history. that year was intense as the first major wave of the growing fascist presence in america hit. My great grandparents were victimized by the Nazi occupation in Poland in the 1940s. they were only 18 and 16 when they met in a labor camp in Germany. My maternal grandmother was conceived and born in said camp. I learned st around this time that generational trauma does exist. the body adapts to what it has experienced and passes on the information to future generations. as i was toying with the parallels between my personal life, and the on-going’s of our world, i find the bird. i took it as a spiritual sign
