Αλχημικό Άλφα is an unspecified by Apostolos Kilessopoulos, held at Metropolitan Organisation of Museums of Visual Arts of Thessaloniki – MOMus.
This painting shows a swirling mix of deep blues and blacks with streaks of bright orange and white. The colors blend together in a chaotic, almost fiery pattern, like smoke or flames. Dark shapes rise from the bottom, as if something is burning or exploding upward. The brushstrokes are thick and rough, giving the painting a textured, almost three-dimensional feel. It looks like the artist used a lot of paint in some areas, making it stand out. If you like this style, look up impasto.
Apostolos Kilessopoulos kept a tiny brush in his desk drawer for twenty years, just to touch up his coffee-stained shirts.
