Fikos’ unique ‘Contemporary Byzantine Painting’ style is what makes him stand out and what intrigues him.
Fikos (1987) embarked on his artistic journey at the turn of the millennium. Simultaneously delving into graffiti artistry and studying Byzantine painting under the esteemed guidance of George Kordis, a luminary in the revival of iconography, Fikos honed his craft through their collaboration, extending their artistic reach to create murals in Orthodox churches worldwide. Transitioning seamlessly from street art to monumental murals, Fikos’s prowess culminated in his renowned masterpiece “Earth and Sky” in Kiev, Ukraine—a towering 46-meter testament to Byzantine art’s modern resurgence, setting records as the world’s largest Byzantine mural and the tallest Greek artwork since antiquity. Drawing inspiration from various artistic traditions such as ancient Egyptian art and modernism, Fikos’s oeuvre is a captivating fusion of diverse influences, predominantly expressed through canvases and large-scale murals spanning the globe. With an extensive portfolio, Fikos has made an indelible mark, participating in exhibitions and festivals worldwide, garnering acclaim for his unique “Contemporary Byzantine Painting” style, which continues to captivate and inspire audiences globally.
