Christos Metaxotos, Phallus, 2023

Christos Metaxotos (b. 1995) is a Greek artist whose practice spans sculpture and painting. He studied Architecture at the National Technical University of Athens (2013-2019) and graduated from the Athens School of Fine Arts in 2025.

His work explores human archetypes, their interactions, and the emotional intensity of violence, drawing on mythology through the lens of analytical psychology. His pictorial language combines Renaissance and Baroque anatomy, inspired by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Rubens, with Rodin's gestural approach complemented by a palette influenced by Art Nouveau and contemporary visual culture.
