INO is a visual artist from Greece who studied painting at the Athens School of Fine Arts. During his studies he also attended workshops in photography, typography, engraving, sculpture, multimedia, hypermedia and graphic design.[citation needed]


Work

Inspired by the behaviour of people and the consequences of their actions, INO's art explores themes of social and political issues, as well as the misuse of technology and power. His first experimental pieces emerged the year 2000, when he started creating graffiti fonts and characters. Gradually INO’s work evolved into figurative painting with influences of photorealism. His images are identified by fragmented forms and a grayscale colour palette with touches of light blue.[citation needed]


In recent years, he has participated in various art projects and exhibitions in Europe, America and the Middle East. The majority of his works are paintings and large scale murals.[citation needed]
