Votsis started with abstraction and gradually moved into representational art with works that are full of lyricism and poetry. His approach is a geometrical analysis of physical dimensions. Ηe explores the structure of matter and mind, sometimes using big areas of colour and sometimes with linear monochromatic work.

His work can be seen at the collections of The State Gallery of Contemporary Cypriot Art, Central Bank of Cyprus Art Collection, The National Bank of Greece, The Commercial Bank of Greece, The Hellenic Bank Cultural Centre, The Limassol Municipal Gallery, The Archbishop Makarios III Foundation-Cultural Centre, The Vorre Museum and in a large number of public and private collections in Cyprus and abroad.
