About
MAKIS KOULIANOS
Born in New York and raised in Litochoro, Pieria, Greece, Makis Koulianos is a painter whose work delves into the profound relationship between art and the evolution of the soul. Deeply inspired by Renaissance masters such as Caravaggio, José de Ribera, and Guido Reni, as well as contemporary artists like Roberto Ferri and Christopher Remmers—whom he has studied under—Koulianos combines classical techniques with a modern vision.
At the core of his artistic philosophy is the idea that consciousness expands through intentional creative expression. His paintings reflect a deep sensitivity to the human soul, exploring esoteric themes while masterfully blending chiaroscuro and tenebrism with vibrant, powerful colors. Through his brush, he constructs scenes of mystery, unveiling the complexities of inner transformation and the hidden dimensions of existence.
