Sculptor
Biography:
MICHAEL KEVGAS
I was born in Athens, 1943. My father, who was occupied in the creation of delicate hand-made furniture, stimulated my artistic inclination, during my childhood. Thus, I gradually entered the field of wood carving and drawing. Moreover, my dire need for artistic expression led me to visiting ancient monuments, museums, art galleries as well as studying art books. All of the above, combined with my attendance of “DOXIADIS” Technological Institute of Athens" from 1969 until 1971, orientated me towards the fine art of sculpture. Inspirational influences in my work derive from ancient Greece, Greek culture, Byzantium, as well as from nature itself. All of my themes are of human orientation. My study in sculpture enables me to face every day's reality, in search of a meaning to my life;
