Dimitra Fakarou | Journey with Light as a Guide

Painting on this journey, following the light, may even be a window in another dimension; nevertheless, it wishes to blend harmoniously with the “outside” of the world and to influence it positively. No matter how illusory it is, it does not seek to swallow the viewer inside, nor to give anything passive and unbiased, but to come to “reality” and with the active and critical eye of the viewer to become one with him and the people.

Dimitra Fakarou was born in Athens in 1983. She studied visual arts at the Athens School of Fine Arts and sociology at the Panteion University. In the past she has been involved with dance and music. She is mainly expressed through painting, sound and digital art, with particular experimentation and exploration of media boundaries, always based on ideas, thoughts and feelings that seek to become visible. She has participated in various exhibitions. [Biography updated on: 8/9/2017]
