Aris Kontogiannis

Aris is a self-taught painter, born in Athens, Greece.

Through his work, Aris invites viewers into a world where imagination and reality intertwine, creating compositions imbued with a dreamlike quality. Through carefully rendered scenes and suggestive symbolism, his paintings delve into the subconscious and often explore psychological, scientific, and mythological themes.

His work has been exhibited internationally at the 2025 London Art Biennale (VII Edition) in Chelsea, UK, and the 2026 Chianciano Biennale (9th Edition) in Tuscany, Italy.

Alongside his painting practice, Aris has a background in architecture and engineering, having studied at The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, and the Canterbury School of Architecture. He is also a member of the Technical Chamber of Greece (TEE) and the Architects Registration Board (ARB) in the United Kingdom.
