Yorgos Kypris (Greek: Γιώργος Κυπρής), born 1954, is a Cypriot sculptor who lives and works between Athens and Santorini in Greece.

Commissioned works and environments of Kypris make part of public and private collections in Europe, North & South America and Asia.

Sea travels and the ancestral relation of the artist with the marine civilizations of the Mediterranean, urged him to create his ceremonial boats which carry people to other lands interspersing their own culture.

Cages & Flights begin with a long dive into the world of Kypris' childhood and his dreams, to capture feelings that turn into memories, self-delusions, tears and anxieties.

The themes-symbols employed, touch upon images which dominate the media in terms of density and frequency and that are imposed as an ethos and lead to a common desire for the mass consumption of an “unbearable lightness of being” lifestyle.

The obsessions, he believes, are imposed on us and make us waste time on such “values” as fashion & beauty, religious zeal & power, spectacle & success.

The main source of inspiration and archive of information in the development of this body of works are television and cuttings from newspapers and magazines he has been collecting selectively for many years.

In 2015, Yorgos Kypris began a new series of work that, in a caustic manner, commented on any form of power that has contributed over time to the development of society.

As his work developed, he began to touch issues pertaining to the extraneous characteristics-symbols of a state religion, either referring to Orthodoxy, Protestantism or Islam but he did not strike them down.

In January 2016 he launched this series of works named "Iconoclastic Exercises" in a solo exhibition of the same title which was held in The House of Cyprus in Athens.

Praise for the show is found in the text for the exhibition written by philosopher Dionyssis Tzarellas and in numerous articles in Greek magazines and newspapers such as LIFO, Ethnos, Kathimerini, To Vima and Proto Thema.
