Alexis Vasilikos (b. 1977) studied photography at FOCUS and AKTO in Athens and Art History at D.A.M.S. University in Bologna, Italy. His work explores a broad spectrum of imagery, ranging from peripatetic photography to abstract photography and meta-photography. Deeply influenced by Eastern mysticism, particularly Advaita Vedanta and Zen Buddhism, his practice focuses on the meditative and transcendental aspects of image-making.
