“Chromatic Reveries: Exhibition of paintings and drawings by Midhun Gopi and Kapraras Alexandros"

Kapraras Alexandros" presents an enthralling convergence of artistic narratives by Midhun Gopi and Kapraras Alexandros at the Nehru Cultural Centre in London. This exhibition celebrates the vibrant symphony of primary hues interwoven with cultural essence and distinctive artistic expressions.

Kapraras Alexandros, a Greek-British artist, unveils a captivating series of portraits that transcend traditional boundaries. Using water droplets as a defining element in his coloured portraits, he pays homage to the formal compositions of Greek Byzantine tradition. Against bold, flat washes of primary colours, his portraits echo ancient myths and contemporary dynamism, blending Mediterranean allure with the essence of modern Britain.

Midhun Gopi, a recent graduate from the University of Westminster, London, paints fictional landscapes from memory, weaving a vibrant tapestry reflecting India's cultural heritage. His use of primary hues is an ode to the myriad colours found in Indian traditions, mythology, and landscapes. Midhun's artwork celebrates the richness of Indian culture, infusing it with contemporary interpretations and a profound exploration of primary colours as carriers of emotions and narratives.
