REDefinition
Nickolaos Tzigizis, United States
REDefinition
DESCRIPTION
This piece is from a series called "RED"efinition. The series was shot using a Holga on both 120 black and white and 120 red-scale film.

As an artist, I do not like to think of my work as mere documentation of the world. I manipulate the environment around me to create a sensorial experience for the viewer. Redefinition - to change or alter the definition of something. Through “REDefinition”, I attempt to challenge the viewers’ world view, while giving them an insight into mine. Society likes to define everything. Our world is split by society on a scale of good or bad, black or white, left or right, where in reality things blend or burn together. People become so attached to the definition society gives that they cannot always see beyond that. By challenging these restrictions, one brings new meaning to something that may have a negative connotation. What others view as chaotic and destructive, others view as safe and warm. Where some might see sadness or anger in abstraction, others see calmness and relief in the palette. “REDedefinition” provides an opportunity for the viewer to challenge their societal impressions and understanding of an image.
AUTHOR
Born and raised in Boston, MA, Nickolaos (Niko) Tzigizis is a first-generation Greek-American visual artist.

With a preferred medium of photography, Niko currently uses both analog and digital techniques to create his work. By “capturing” aspects of reality, Niko attempts to explore ideas and notions of human emotion, ego, nature, and the sublime.

As an artist, Niko, feels as though each piece, thought, and sketch acts as its own entity. Each idea is its own world. The artist acts as its own universe, continuously giving birth to new worlds and destroying others.

Each piece stands as a portal to its world; its only job to connect to you.
