About the Artist

Grigorios was born in Corinth, Greece in 1974. He studied Archaeology and History of Art at the University of Athens and worked as an archaeologist for three years, specializing in the study and classification of Greek prehistoric pottery.

In 2004 Grigorios moved to Scotland, where he has lived ever since. He studied Textile Design at Edinburgh College of Art and since 2012 has been a professional artist, exhibiting regularly. His artwork can be found in private collections in Scotland, Greece, Belgium, Japan and USA.

Much of his work has been created during art collaborations and Grigorios has worked with very talented artists  from film, performance costume, interior design, product design.

Much of the work exhibited at the gallery is from his series "Dialogues with Gaia". This work in its essence celebrates Mother Earth, Gaia; the living organism which inhales and exhales with us, has a heartbeat, and sings songs at nights under the starry skies for those who know how to listen.

​The work tries to synthesize within a visual context disparate elements drawn from the vast pool of our collective psyche; drawn from a memory bank which exists in our collective DNA and is accessible to the seeker. These elements are simultaneously different and yet the same. They are coming from numerous ages, forms, colours, textures, smells and at the same time originate from the same Source. They are trying to find ways to re-unite, to re-connect, and tell stories of old anew.
