Phil Bird and Anna Georghiou return to Cyprus for their exciting joint exhibition Imaginary constellations and In-between places at Kypriaki Gonia Gallery and a special performance of their music as’ Troubadours Garden’ plus a creative Arts/music workshop open to the public at the Cornaro Institute.

Anna Georghiou Painter & Musician

Anna has called her part of the Exhibition ‘In Between Places’ because many of these paintings finished in Okehampton, a small market town in Devon England.

Anna Georghiou holds B.A. in Psychology/Philosophy and an MA in Fine Art, she exhibits internationally and has work in many collections. Her paintings depict groups of figures in a timeless setting; offering viewers alternative possible worlds, questioning perceived reality and embracing the creative imagination.

‘Honesty in Art Is important to me, Art need not shock or follow superficial hollow trends. In an age of cynicism I wish to affirm the enduring qualities of the human spirit and reignite the search for the Logos (the soul), and ''the Insightful power of the mind''.

Phil Bird M.A. Painter and Musician

Phil Bird has called his part of the exhibition ''Imaginary Constellations''.

He started this series whilst living in Cyprus and painting in his studio at Cyrus College of Art where he led the Foundation Course in Art for 4 years. He has continued to work on this series in England and is pleased to present them at Kypriaki Gonia upon his return to the Island.

Phil continues to explore the Spirituality and symbolism of Folklore, fairytale and myth in his painting and music he says of this work

“ after many years working on a larger scale I felt the creative pulse changing. Now I find delight in an almost miniature way of painting. I love the intensity and focused imagery that this way of painting brings to me.

When I am immersed in this visionary craft, starting from improvised and fluid beginnings, I find unexpected themes rise to meet me. This kind of art tells visionary tales.....

For me Painting is always at the start of an adventure , at the threshold between personal and transpersonal realms it can be blissful scary and ecstatic

Painting is a Trance, a dance, a chance to make the old songs birth songs again.!”

Phil has paintings in national collections in Britain and has exhibited his work internationally over several decades. He has also been involved in many visual arts and music initiatives in education and community in Cyprus and U.K. As a Songwriter he has released 5 Cds and will be performing music as Troubadours Garden with Anna Georghiou at the Cornaro Inst Larnaca in September at a date to be announced soon and at their private view at Kypriagi Gonia on 17th Sept.
