Siagris), he has an MSc in Light and Lighting (UCL, London) and a Degree in Architecture (NTUA, Athens).

His subject, the human, is captured in instances of everyday life, open to the viewers’ personal interpretations. He utilizes a methodological approach to his paintings and conducts continuous research as key to the advancement of his painting practice.
