In “Silent Sunrise”, a yellow/orange backdrop dominates the canvas, imbuing the scene with the warmth and radiance of a burgeoning dawn. The hue of the background is reminiscent of the fiery glow that heralds the arrival of the sun, casting a luminous veil over the entire composition.
The words “silent sunrise” emerge serving as both a declaration and an invitation. They evoke a sense of tranquility and anticipation. The reflection of “silent sunrise” emerges as the ethereal beauty of dawn as it may reflect upon the tranquil surface of a serene lake or calm body of water.
Through this evocative artwork, the artist transports us to a realm where silence reigns supreme, and where the gentle embrace of dawn whispers promises of renewal and possibility. It is a testament to the quiet beauty that lies beneath the surface of our bustling world, inviting us to pause, reflect, and find solace in the silent embrace of the sunrise.

Born and raised in New York City. He attended the High School of Art and Design and then the School of Visual Arts where he greatly admired and was influenced by artist Chuck Close, first as a student of Close’s and later as a friend. A neo-pointillist, Bezas is inspired by historically important pointillist artists such as Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. Bezas’ distinctive trademark is the vertical and horizontal stacks of dots contained within a grid, which he sometimes places on a diagonal. Another distinct narrative of his art is the alternating dot pattern achieved by the smaller grids within larger ones and the two alternating dot sizes. He has created a contemporary hybrid using his design sensibilities, photography and painting talents, blurring the lines among the three. The dots in his art interrelate and culminate into something that’s larger than the sum of its parts. The viewer is utterly transfixed to realize that the work is created from a mélange of meticulously placed dots of varying sizes into an underlying grid in an artistic, mathematical process, whereby the actual composition comes alive with exciting recognition.

What was once representational with a clear focal point becomes a decidedly all-over abstract composition almost archaeological in nature.
