The world changes, moves and grows constantly. This growth is rapid and the increasing speed of everyday life is becoming more and more noticeable in last decades.Consequently, these changes affect society as well as beliefs about existence, values ​​and ideals. In the past,people lived in harmony with their fellow humans and nature and they managed to enjoy everyday moments of calmness. Nowadays people became expropriated citizens who are always in a hurry, operating with robotic movements and their aim is only to meet their fake needs. In my work I try to highlight the fast rhythms of life and the alienation of people in modern cities.Each image is rendered with a view from above so that the viewer to be placed at a point where he has a broad view of the situation and will, even for a moment, become a judge and assessor of the modern reality. In my work there is no interaction between people. All of them are impersonal and they have no expression on their face. Τhey are constantly moving lonely and the only thing that differentiates each other is their external appearance. The space in which they are placed is taken from the urban landscape. These are roads, crossings and escalators that act as synonyms for mobility and fast-paced life. My goal is to create a first pleasant feeling through the colorful and playful surface resulting from the costumes, shades and contrasts of the streets.But with a closer look, the alienation and the individualism prevailing today are evident, concepts that have a very negative content in spite of the joyful palette of the painting and thus it provokes concern about the future of our existence.
