An Interview with Achilleas Pistonis.

Who and where are you from?

My name is Achilleas Pistonis, I am a painter and I am from Greece.

How you got into this?

I started painting from a very young age. I studied at Athens School of Fine Arts under the guidance of Triantafillos Patraskidis. After my graduation, I worked with Frissira’s Museum, one of the few museums of contemporary painting in Greece.
Since then I have held 2 solo exhibitions as well I have participated in over 30 group exhibitions in Greece and abroad. In 2016 I have participated in 5 Art Fairs with Kaplanon galleries (Madrid, Barcelona, Zurich, Athens and Thessaloniki).

What is your driving force?

My work starts from personal references and experiences and they end up raising a point on wider issues of society, as I understand them. 
Through my own people (family, friends) I have directed a lot sections of paintings regarding mourning or depression, but also I have created paintings for novels, poems or the cover of a cd.

What kind of work you do and why?

My work is symbolistic and figurative painting. I can’t really answer why. All I know is that I only do what makes me feel complete and I don’t see any reason why I should do anything else. As long as there are things that I still want to do, I will continue doing them.
