Painting

«Painting is a vision, born in the world of the senses. Art reproduces Life and traps hope. I paint from an inner excess.»

Sculpture

«In my case, becoming is part and expressed in a thought, which pulsates with passion and courage from deep, distant and mythological, historical echoes. The rhythm of the universal movement that unites and opposes the opposites in the harmony of becoming is the rhythm that the dialectical thought captures, that is, VOLUME-CONVERSATION-CONTINUITY-MOVEMENT-WORK.»

Literature

«The speech is what captures the true, active reality. The power of speech and the poetic intention in its expression is the power of universality and the light that illuminates the darkness.»

Memories of war

"Memories of the past... Moments of the present..."

Has been said about Spilios

  • "Spilios' paintings are clearly the favorite meeting of two worlds. When the viewer stands in front of his works, he is simply fascinated by the rich offer of the past, wisely integrated in the dynamic search and deposition of today.
    This delicate balance, which is the supreme reference point... (Read more)

    Art Historian
  • "In his art, the experience of postmodernism restores the narrative of any subject, while the intense manifestations of realism are depicted vividly, subverting relevance, qualities and associations. The inspired artist conveys through allegorical correlations a visual parade of inspirations. (Read more)

  • "Spilios Tsounis is a young man with magical hands, with a sensitivity that I can not find a word to describe. He is a boy who takes a piece of olive trunk and makes it a dream, a philosophical saying or a tangible life. A sculptor, photographer, painter, hagiographer but also a teacher worried about the visual arts of young people... (Read more)

  • Η ποίηση του Σπήλιου Τσούνη είναι τέχνη που εκπορεύεται από τη ζωγραφική και τη γλυπτική και την πατροπαράδοτη σοφία της Ανατολής. Ο ποιητής, χαμηλών τόνων, αποπνέει το άρωμα των αρχαίων μυστών και την ευλάβεια των μυστικών της ορθόδοξης ελληνικής παράδοσης. Η ταπεινοφροσύνη, αφήνει το αίσθημα του πόνου… (Read more)

  • "Before Spilios starts his research in wood sculpture and painting, he had acquired an important tenure in the field of Byzantine hagiography. His nature was revealed gradually and in depth, with the result that for many years he considered himself completely dependent and essentially connected to it. (Read more)

    Art Critic and Historian
  • "The tradition that continues dynamically today is the expression of a brilliant course of Greek art from the Hellenistic era until today. The mural, the portable image as well as the passage (stylistically) in our painting suggests that we stand poetically in front of the creator in an aesthetic integration... (Read more)

    Dimitra Sarri

    Art Critic and Historian
  • "What characterizes the work of Spilios, is the power in his color range, as well as the comfort with which he treats and uses the various materials. Sometimes he uses pastels, while others oils or even mixed techniques, such as powder, glue and more, everything takes on a force and an "aggressive" dimension in the artist's hand... (Read more)
