Negros Tou Moria

Black Morris is the approximate translation of Negros Tou Moria which in its original Greek is an adroit play on words with Geros Tou Moria, a legendary general of the Greek revolution against the Turkish occupation – this twist on a symbol of classic ‘Greekness’ goes a great way to describing the artist’s ethos, creativity and cultural dichotomy;he is an artist that embodies 21st century inner city Athens, speaking of and to its affronted youth with his own tenacious swagger.
