Biography

Christos Tolera was born, lives and works in London.

“My work seeks to portray a fleeting, frozen moment of revelation, neither appearing nor disappearing, to engage with the viewer in a potential connection of heightened emotion, perhaps a falling in love, or an imminent loss.”

 'A held breath, a secret longing

A space in between

The calm before the storm, a state suspended

The moment before a sigh of relief.'
