Spiros Halaris is a multi-disciplinary artist and award-winning illustrator. He was trained in London at the University of the Arts and made New York City his home in 2013, where he has been based ever since.
Drawing on a diverse range of influences—from surrealism to fiction— he creates evocative works that seamlessly blend classical elegance with modern sensibilities. Rendered with meticulous detail, bold lines and an air of nostalgia, his illustrations often depict intimate or bizarre moments—whether it’s the interiors of an apartment, the allure of city people, or the beauty of everyday objects. The viewer is invited not only to observe, but to imagine the story unfolding in the space beyond his frame.
Spiros’s artistic practice is deeply influenced by the roots of graphic visual culture and in his work, he often creates a dialogue between the present and the distant past, referencing motifs and iconography to evoke a timeless narrative.
Throughout his career, Spiros has created a vast and diverse body of work, spanning various mediums including illustration, drawing, textiles, objects, set design, and animation. His artistic versatility has led him to collaborate with some of the world’s most respected institutions, brands, and publications. His illustrations have graced the pages and covers of The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post, among others.
He has worked on special collaborations with prestigious brands such as Roger Vivier, Oribe, Emporio Armani, Dior, Nespresso, Walt Disney, Bergdorf Goodman, Vanity Fair, Shiseido, Esteé Lauder, Accor, Bulgari, and Evian, to name a few.
In addition to his commercial and editorial work, Spiros is the artist of several acclaimed books, including Palette by Funmi Fetto and True Style by G. Bruce Boyer. In 2024, he wrote and illustrated his first short graphic novel story EGG.
He has been featured in publications such as Illustration Fashion Now (Taschen, 2014) and The Beautiful Illustrations for Fashion & Style (Gestalten, 2010), where his work is celebrated for its exceptional technical skill and its ability to tell powerful, evocative stories through imagery.
His work has been showcased in numerous exhibitions around the world. Notable exhibitions include solo and group shows at Printemps Paris (2017), Bank Gallery in Tokyo (2015), Glassworks in London (2012), and the CL Design Museum in London (2014), among others.
