For the Kalo Mina window in December, Theodore Noutsos presents the new, abstract sculpture 'Wild Horse'.

 

Self taught, his effort to articulate a personal style is visible in the subjects that inspire his abstract work, the way he uses both non painting materials, such as newspapers and the techniques of contemporary abstraction, such as décollage. His work is dominated by a maximalist system that records and shapes the notion of the human existence and the human nature in general. His intension is an aesthetic treaty outside of the rational commands of a production process, which is organized as an ensemble of notes, for the final result to be understood as the imprint of a creative behavior. 

 

With the work 'Wild Horse', Theodore Noutsos invites the viewer to experience a profound dialogue between chaos and universal harmony. Through the abstract figure of a riding horse, the artist attempts to momentarily capture the untamable spirit of nature. Suspended in the air, the sculpture intentionally reveals the multiple layers of materials from which it is made, in order to reflect the unpredictable flow of life's experiences. Through the interplay of light and shadow, organic forms dominate, gradually revealing themselves to express a sense of unrestrained life. Beyond the self-evident beauty of the horse's form, the artist strongly invokes the notion of liberation. He urges us to reconnect with the primary qualities of our being, and to explore the unknown. To live the adventure of life to the end.
