Dimitri Likissas

Dimitri Likissas forvandler prikken til sitt eget språk – et optisk alfabet som forvandler bilder til dynamiske, nesten pulserende opplevelser. Han er født i Belgia med greske røtter, og har utviklet en stil der fargede prikker bygger seg opp til mønstre som veksler mellom det abstrakte og det geometriske. Verkene hans utfordrer betrakterens øye. På nært hold avslører de en virvlende rytme av farge og form, mens prikkene på avstand smelter sammen til en større helhet. Denne spenningen mellom bevegelse og stillhet, fragment og totalitet, skaper en visuell energi som føles både leken og hypnotisk. Likissas utforsker den uendelige skalaen av farger og de subtile variasjonene i tone, og arrangerer dem innenfor et todimensjonalt rammeverk som plutselig fremstår tredimensjonalt. Gjennom presisjon og fantasi har han skapt et helt personlig uttrykk – et visuelt språk som tvinger oss til å stoppe opp, engasjere oss og la øyet vandre uendelig.

Dimitri Likissas

Contemporary Fine Art Exploring Colour, Form and Optical Experience.

Dimitri Likissas is a Belgian-born artist of Greek heritage whose work has captured the attention of collectors and art enthusiasts worldwide. His distinctive visual language transforms thousands of carefully arranged coloured dots into compositions that shift between abstraction at close range and figurative imagery from a distance. The dynamic interplay of form and colour imbues each piece with energy, rhythm and visual intrigue.

At Mankovsky Gallery, Dimitri Likissas is presented as part of our focus on contemporary artists whose work merges technical precision with conceptual depth. Each print offers a dialogue between perception, emotion and design.

The Dot as Artistic Expression

Central to Likissas’s practice is his iconic use of the dot. Through a neo-pointillist approach, simple elements accumulate into complex patterns that both challenge and reward the viewer’s gaze. Up close, the artwork reveals a lively interplay of colour and texture; from afar, these dots coalesce into recognizable shapes and figurative motifs. This tension between fragment and whole creates an immersive and captivating visual experience.

From Abstraction to Representation

Likissas’s compositions balance abstraction and figurative expression. His dot arrangements can read as kinetic landscapes of colour and movement, resolving into distinct forms as the viewer steps back. Influenced by optical art and pop traditions, his work engages the eye while evoking emotional resonance, maintaining a contemporary voice that is uniquely his own.

Museum-Quality Fine Art Prints

The fine art prints in this collection translate Likissas’s signature dot work into museum-grade editions. Each piece is printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag® Bright White paper using archival pigment inks, ensuring exceptional tonal fidelity and longevity. Many prints are released in limited editions, hand-numbered and authenticated, offering both artistic and collectible value.

Optical Depth and Cultural Impact

What sets Likissas’s prints apart is their ability to engage viewers on multiple levels. The optical qualities encourage prolonged observation and reinterpretation, while bold and nuanced colour choices create a sensory experience that is at once playful and contemplative. His works invite reflection on perception, form and visual rhythm.
