Nikolas Antoniou paints semi-abstract human figures in indeterminate places with a rich application of color. Devoid of communicating clear narratives or outlining specific demeanors, he seeks for unconventional ways to portray the body.

By re-framing the human form through different postures, gestures and presenting them in an unrealistically charged palette, packed with an unsystematic assembly of various objects, he urges the beholder to generate questions regarding the interconnectedness of the compositional elements.

Nikolas Antoniou (b. 1988, Larnaca, Cyprus) graduated from the Department of Fine and Applied Arts, University of Western Macedonia, Greece. After completing his residency at BAF he shows his work at the Alpha CK Gallery, Cyprus, and the Technohoros Art Gallery, Athens in the form of solo exhibitions. He lives and works in Larnaca, Cyprus.
