About the Artwork & Parallels Series

Mitsi’s Eyes is an original abstract painting by Gregory Christeas from the Parallels Series. This deeply personal work was created in memory of the artist’s sister, Mitsi.

Layers of gray, green, blue, and gold move across the surface like fragments of memory, grief, tenderness, and reflection. The composition carries an intimate emotional presence, suggesting eyes that continue looking forward while holding the weight of the past.

Gregory Christeas creates infinite abstract forms that transform like a wandering spirit in search of the realization of beauty. This series was developed over six decades of exploring Abstract Expressionism. His forms evoke a Socratic dialogue through the use of tension, contradiction, and gradual revelation. The viewer becomes engaged in an active process of observation, inquiry, and discovery. Every encounter transforms into a personal dialogue between the artwork and the spirit of the observer.

The Parallels series presents the artist’s vision of abstract art as a reflection of human emotion. Each painting in the series functions as a self-portrait of Gregory Christeas, reflecting a lifetime shaped by Greek history, culture, and personal experiences.

By applying metallic and fluorescent pigments in multiple layers, Gregory Christeas creates luminous fields where light becomes a structural, tangible element. His paintings reveal radiant layers of color and light, highlighting the delicate balance between chaos and serenity.

Through expressive form and movement, Christeas transforms emotion into visual poetry that resonates with depth and quiet intensity. Parallels represents the purest form of abstract art, capturing human emotion.
