Palace in Minos 1988

Nassos Daphnis made this abstract painting, Palace in Minos, and it's a real trip into pure shape and color. The colors are so direct, aren't they? Red, blue, yellow, black, and white: like a kid's building blocks, but the way they're put together, it's totally sophisticated. I love how the surfaces are so flat and smooth. It makes you wonder, what kind of tools did he use to get that kind of finish? Everything feels super intentional, each block of color perfectly placed. Look at the way he uses those thin white lines between the shapes – they make the whole thing pop! It reminds me a bit of Mondrian's later work, but with its own playful vibe. It's not just about being serious, it's like Daphnis is having fun with geometry, turning ancient architecture into something brand new. Art's just a big conversation, right?
