By Christel Citko, Art Source Satori Gregorakis’ artwork is full of surprises. Every canvas revels in the artist’s sense of humor, each painting a visual rendering of a clever turn on a common phrase. Despite his humorous nature, however, Satori is a seriously skilled painter. He is endlessly intrigued by visual imaginings that reside in the realm between reality and fantasy, and he is clearly able to render these imaginings brilliantly. His artwork is highly narrative in nature; his paintings convey an almost dream-like quality to the bemused viewer. Satori moves in and out of visual themes and story lines. Compelled to create imagery where he uses a combination of highly stylized composition, light and contrasting colors, his goal is to apply all three skillfully, thereby drawing the viewer into his paintings. Satori Gregorakis (Long Island, N.Y., 1943-) Satori is committed to beauty, exploring and developing new ideas and skills while his resolve for diversity continues. In this pursuit, he discovers the mysteries and challenges of painting in the styles of old masters, and allows himself to be guided by the spontaneity of his imagination in abstract painting.
