Psychologist Dimitrios Tsivrikos Reads People Through Their Art

Dr. Dimitrios Tsivrikos, a psychologist at University College London (UCL) and the founder and director of The TAGLI, a gallery and advisory in London, examines individuals through the artwork they choose to display at home. He likens this to assessing someone’s bookshelf during a date, emphasizing how people enhance their surroundings both visually and emotionally, irrespective of the art's financial worth. Tsivrikos finds common ground between art and psychology, both of which delve into human motivations and emotions. His intrigue with the interplay of visual elements and emotional responses has always been significant. Growing up in Thessaloniki, Greece, he developed an early appreciation for the visual arts.
