Grigorios Ilaridis (b. 1997, Athens) is a Belgian-Greek visual artist based in Antwerp. His layered practice moves between two-dimensional collage and three-dimensional sculpture, drawing from mythology, censorship, and contemporary storytelling. Working with materials such as acrylic, metal, plaster, and wax, he creates works that weave historic references into contemporary visual culture.
After earning his MFA from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp in 2023, he quickly established his presence with key milestones including participation in Art Brussels 2024, receiving the Mark Macken Prize, and presenting his debut solo exhibition KLEOS at Base-Alpha Gallery, which now represents him.
In 2025, he was awarded an Emerging Talent Grant from the Flemish Government, supporting material research and international study trips in Denmark and Los Angeles.
