Dimitris Mihlis

Cyprus : Dimitris Mihlis

Gallery Kypriaki Gonia presents the new work of Dimitris Mihlis.

Dimitris Mihlis is a genuine artist. He is undoubtedly not only a genuine painter, but also an incompatible artist. His work exudes a primitive force, sincerity and a truth that we seldom meet during our days. His is sure about his brushstroke and the colors his is using are earthen. "I may paint each painting a hundred times until I get the desirable result", he comments. And he adds: "the water, the air, the color are elements of life. Water means life, color means life. I would be very pleased if I could paint the air…". Born in the now occupied Akhna village, Dimitris Mihlis lives and works for many years in Tokhni.village "I like being alone for many hours, many days without seeing or talking to anyone. This is the reason I am a painter", he says.

His new work, can be considered the best and the most mature. He puts on the canvas the moment and he captures the light, the abundant light of the Cypriot landscape. He sometimes may even stop the time. This is the reason his works exude metaphysics and immortalize the eternity. His work is inspired from the Cypriot landscape and generally from the Cypriot nature: trees and tree trunks, flowers in enlargement, seas and skies, but also paintings with strong and expressive persons, compose the new and inspired work of the artist.

Dimitris Mihlis was born in Akhna in 1954. He studied painting in the St. Martin's School of Art of London (B.A. and M.A.). He exhibited his work in a lot of one-man exhibitions and participated in group-exhibitions in Cyprus and abroad.
