Nephelokokkugía (Zodiac)

Zodiac Prints

Here you can find my zodiac Collection. I took my twist on it by combining it with the greek story cloud cuckoo land also known as Nephelokokkugía (a city in the sky where our problems have been solved and we are connected to the Devine.) My paintings aim to capture the theme of the zodiac but tying it to our earthly problems, and lessons we can learn from our history. Inspired by the zodiacs and our connection to the stars, and the stories that came before us. I hope you can enjoy my rendition of the zodiac collection.

House of Aries, holds profound symbolism when viewed through the lens of religion, history, and the fiery spirit of Aries. The Hagia Sophia, a structure that has transitioned through multiple faiths and empires, embodies the resilience and transformation of human spirituality. It has been a cathedral, a mosque, and now a museum—a living testament to humanity’s evolving relationship with the divine. This constant state of change mirrors the Aries archetype: a force of creation, destruction, and rebirth, driven by an unyielding will to forge ahead.

The red-drenched sky in your painting feels almost apocalyptic, suggesting both a cosmic battle and a divine awakening. Aries, ruled by Mars, the god of war, is associated with conflict, courage, and the breaking of old structures to make way for the new. This ties into the way religions have historically risen and clashed, often leaving behind magnificent remnants of their time—just like the Hagia Sophia itself, standing as a beacon of endurance amid the tides of history.

The fiery landscape could represent the collective struggle of humanity in its search for meaning, echoing the many revolutions—spiritual and literal—that have shaped our past. Fire is a purifier, a destroyer, and a bringer of light, much like Aries energy, which challenges the past in order to carve out an uncharted future. The painting suggests that while beliefs may shift, and empires may fall, the essence of the human spirit remains, pushing forward with the same passion and intensity that Aries embodies.

In a way, House of Aries does not just depict a place; it captures the fire of human will, the eternal cycle of faith and reinvention.

Garden of Venus
(Taurus Collection)
In the heart of this piece, ancient ruins rise from a lush, blooming paradise — a sacred garden devoted to Venus, the ruling planet of Taurus.
Here, beauty and abundance intertwine: pastel skies, wild irises, climbing vines, and a serene pond reflect the grounded, sensual energy that Taurus embodies.
The crumbling columns hint at a history of devotion to nature, love, and luxury — values Taurus holds dear.
Inspired by the timeless elegance of Greek gardens and the soft vibrancy of Impressionist art, Garden of Venus invites the viewer into a sanctuary of calm, pleasure, and rooted connection to the Earth.
A quiet celebration of patience, prosperity, and the enduring power of natural beauty.
