Apart from landscapes, he also created works with scenes from the daily life of the village and the city, as well as compositions referring to the tragedy of Cyprus after the Turkish invasion in 1974. […] In the series of woodcut engravings ‘Hard Times’ he created after 1974 he appears more monumental and epic. The series is characterized by drama and intensity. Without straying from the real, he simplifies, shapes and uses expressionist formulas to express strong emotions. The figures are placed in a pressing and neutral space, which accentuates the tragic nature of the scene.
