"RHIGAS is a Greek painter from the island of Chios. Her painting evokes impressions of a childhood bathed in the vibrant light of Greece. At home, nature retains all its power and gives it a spiritualistic translation. After high school, he moved to London and attended the Royal Academy. 

The following year he arrived in Paris, he was received in the admission competition to the École des Beaux-Arts. At the same time, and to perfect his knowledge of drawing, he took courses at different Parisian academies and participated in Parisian fairs. In 1976 he had a special exhibition at the Galerie Alexander in Paris"

The Macabre dance is a popular art motif both present in the European folklore and elaborated at the end of the Middle Ages. It is one of the most completed elements of theart macabre of the Middle Ages, from xiv^and to xvi^and century.

Throughout the xv^and century and at the beginning of the xvi^and, this theme is painted on church walls, in cemeteries ofNorthern Europe, on exterior walls of cloisters, mass graves, ossuaries. Above or below the illustration are painted verses by which death is addressed to the victim, often in a sarcastic and cynicistic tone. It is broadcast throughout Europe by poetic texts peddled by the troops of street theatre.

This form of expression is the result of an awareness and reflection on life and death, at a time when it has become more present and traumatic. Wars — especially the Hundred Years' War — famines and plague, which are often represented by Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, decimated populations
