View through Europeana Collections
In the works of the period 2010-2012 Nikos Triantafyllou creates "scanographies": he scans in high resolution and prints on archival paper compositions with flowers, clothes, books and other decorative objects. In the composition "The Gates of Paradise. Still Life after Jan van Kessel", as the title itself indicates, the influences of the Flemish artist are evident. The still life depicted on the paper with objects that have a symbolic content outline a painted surface, where the flatness of the image reinforces the anonymous character of a work that basically aims at personal introspection.
