He was born in Larissa in 1963. He studied painting at the Athens School of Fine Arts with teachers Dimitris Mytaras, Rena Papaspyrou, Giannis Moralis and Dimitris Koukos (1981-1986). With a scholarship from the French state he continued his studies at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris in the laboratory of L. Cremonini (1987-1991). In 1988 he obtained a scholarship from the I.K.Y. for 3 years for studies at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs.
In his first solo exhibition in 1991 at the Athens Art Gallery he presented a series of documentary paintings in which the influences of L. Cremonini’s teacher are strongly visible: empty interiors, closed spaces, the signs of abandonment and the patina of time, the petrified by fear persons substantiate the themes of his early works. Unlike in the following sections of his works (Athens Art Gallery, 1995 & Terracotta Art Gallery, Thessaloniki 1996) the artist floods his large surfaces with human figures.
It focuses on the painting of people and through familiar images, such as a meal in the forest or a religious procession, a world emerges with symbolic and metaphysical extensions to the unconscious and the dream. In the series Dream Navigator (Frysira Museum, 2006) he constructs a paradoxical world, contradictory with various references in many chapters of the history of art and classical literature. His heroes are bizarre human figures, placed in a symbolic frame, in an arrangement that subverts the logic of the image. In his most recent works (Fluid Frames, Euripides Gallery 2017), he focuses on the faces, which he paints disproportionately large in relation to the bodies, possibly to give them even more emphasis. Their bodies bend, deform and seem to acrobatic between the real and the imaginary.
He has held solo exhibitions in Greece and Europe, as well as has participated in dozens of group, thematic exhibitions, foires in Greece and abroad. His works are in the Frisia Museum, in the Foundation “L ‘Estree” Ropraz, in M.IET, in the Museum of Frisira, in the Ministry of Culture, in the Municipal Galleries of Larissa and Rhodes, in the Gallery of Moschandreou, as well as in private collections in Greece and abroad.
