Spontaneity
I started painting spontaneously.
Experimented with various materials and mediums
to explore methods
to aid in my search
for an answer
as to why I spontaneously began to paint.
At a young age
I
Juxtaposed
neolithic methods
and Dada CONcepts.
I began to explore
my inner consciousness
using random chaos theory
whereby
my work gradually evolved
into
what
it is.

Kavouklés was interviewed by the art critic Joan Altabe regarding his early adoption of digital printing. And despite the article’ s misleading headline, his pigment print images are not “computer-generated” by some automated process. Click here to read the interview.
Kavouklés’ work is featured in the book by art historian Darrell D. Davisson, Ph.D., Art After the Bomb: Iconographies of Trauma in Late Modern Art (2008).
