about the artist

Nikolaos Schizas is a Barcelona-based contemporary artist known for his powerful abstract canvas paintings. Entirely self-taught, he approaches art as an intuitive process rather than a structured practice. His work emerges from emotion, memory, and subconscious reflection. Each canvas becomes a direct dialogue between inner experience and visual expression.

His paintings are created with a dynamic mix of acrylics, spray paint, resin, brushes, spatulas, and experimental techniques. He often uses pouring, dripping, and layering to achieve depth and movement. The result is a vibrant surface that feels alive with rhythm and raw emotion. This material experimentation forms the core of his practice.

Schizas’s art is rooted in emotional honesty. He paints to release repressed feelings such as anger, shame, or redemption. Every gesture becomes an act of liberation, transforming invisible emotions into visible forms. His artworks invite viewers to confront their own inner states and unspoken memories. They are not just visual experiences, but emotional encounters.

The artist’s style balances spontaneity with deliberate construction. Splashes of color and fluid textures create immediacy, while layered detail reveals careful composition. His influences span Abstract Expressionism, Surrealism, and Pop, yet his voice remains unique. The works are bold, colorful, and intense, yet always infused with harmony.

Living and working in Barcelona has further shaped his artistic vision. The city’s cultural dynamism and architectural rhythm echo in his compositions. The Mediterranean light and energy appear in his luminous color choices and vibrant contrasts. His canvases reflect not only internal states but also the pulse of his surroundings.

He has showcased his dynamic abstract paintings in solo and group exhibitions across Europe, North America, and beyond. Notably, he presented his work at the Kunsthaus Artes in Berlin, Germany, in 2023. He also participated in the HALBGÖTTER group exhibition alongside renowned artists like Georg Baselitz and Markus Lüpertz. In 2024, Schizas featured in the CONTEXT Art Fair in Miami, USA. His canvas art has appeared in numerous international galleries and fairs, reflecting his growing global presence.

Collectors and galleries across Europe and beyond have embraced his work. Exhibitions highlight his ability to merge emotional depth with striking visual impact. Each original artwork carries authenticity and presence, reinforcing his rising reputation within contemporary art circles. Schizas’s paintings captivate viewers with their energy, color, and texture, making them compelling additions to both private collections and curated spaces.
