The new work of Stamatis Laskos is just as warped as ever and equally impressive. Having honed his artistic abilities since 2009, when he first made waves on the Internet, the Greek street artist continues to create stunning portraits that are full of intricate details and odd personalities.
Working and living in Athens, the new work of Stamatis Laskos understandably takes over many of the streets of his hometown. This is Colossal quotes Oscar Wilde, "Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter. It is not he who is revealed by the painter; it is rather the painter who, on the coloured canvas, reveals himself," and it couldn't be more appropriate.
