About
Peter Charalambides is a visual artist living and working in London, England.
Peter works in a variety of mediums including spray and acrylic paint, oil sticks, collage and pen. Pieces are characterised by colour and texture- qualities that magnify an expressionist style throughout his works. There is a defining dichotomy in Peter's work, in so much that he seesaws wildly between the monochrome and precision, to the free and colourful.
Peter is currently working on a series exploring the ideas of choice and freedom. Are choices freely made or are they influenced by previous decisions (such as what children’s television programmes we watched as children)? Or perhaps, we have no choice (or freedom whatsoever) and our paths are mapped from the very outset.
Therefore, the piece attempts to explore the ideas of existentialism, determinism and fatalism through the medium of imagery, words and mathematics.
Peter Charalambides is a working artist and has sold artworks to patrons around the world. His work has appeared in numerous exhibitions in the U.K and appeared in several publications.
Peter has also donated several of his drawings to local causes, which have subsequently been used in merchandising and other charitable fund raising activities.
