Konstantinos Chalaris is an artist and illustrator based in East London, known for his ability to blend elements of reality with whimsical fantasy in his artwork. His background in architecture strongly influences his work, giving it a structured, yet imaginative quality.
Recently, he collaborated with Liberty, the famous British department store renowned for its iconic textile patterns, to create a unique series of art prints. These works combine Liberty's famous patterns with imagery of insects found in nature. This collaboration merges the delicate, timeless designs of Liberty with Chalaris' skill for illustrating the wonders of the natural world, presenting a vibrant intersection of fashion, art, and nature.
