Life

Schicho studied between 1998 and 2005 under Wolfgang Herzig at the University for Applied Arts.
Harwig Knack, curator of the Kunsthalle Krems, wrote about his paintings:
Perception, surveillance, observation and observation of oneself plays a key role in the work of Stylianos Schicho. He is concerned with exploring "observation and surveillance spaces", especially those created by cameras. The graduate of the University of Applied Arts uses the classical perspective of the surveillance camera as a stylistic device in his monumental paintings. He poses the question as to the relationship between observer and observed. He also throws a critical glance at the discussion in the wake of 9/11, which has increasingly become the focus of public attention.
