… To understand the subject of Pavlos Samios is obvious that not only is it completely useless but also totally impossible, since here there is nothing else but painting. A painting that does not need any interpretation, no title, no caption, no meaning, not even what we wanted to attribute to those paintings where the flames of fire come out of the mouth of the snake, of the woman or of the red angel…

Now, let's just look at it and realize that Samios didn’t have in mind to create enigmatic images. We could even suggest that he is not even interested in surrealism. His work resembles modern motifs and ancient shapes. It combines memories of time immemorial with vivid details - cigarettes, matches, transistors, children's toys, high heels. All these things are easily recognized, they represent a time. However, they are part of other images that are more complex, "superior" and are images of an aesthetic tradition in which Samios moves with ease. The mother and the child remind us of Mary with Jesus. The drowning figures of the takeover, the meteorites, the wingers, the swarming divers, swimmers, cruisers, all these flying figures resemble descendants of angels and archangels, holy primitive miracles or Byzantines, whom we meet in the frescos in churches. Their creators, anonymous monks or famous Tuscan painters, needed to portray Hell and Paradise. Source: samiospavlos.gr
