Information

Following an invitation by 68projects, Tsagaris spent the summer working in Berlin. His art revolves around timeless themes, such as humanity, the search for meaning and the sublime. Tsagaris’ mostly abstract collages, paintings and films are always grounded in the medium of photography, revealing an intense fascination with occultism, spirituality and mystic teachings. Following mythological tradition, such as the story of Narcissus, who drowns in his reflection, the mirror in Tsagaris’ work symbolizes the fall of the soul from the divine to the physical realm, from higher consciousness to the profane, while simultaneously exemplifying the purification of collective being.
