Argiris SER Saraslanidis (born June 22, 1978 in Thessaloniki, Greece) is a Greek street artist and illustrator currently based in Corfu island. He is one of the pioneers in the street art scene of Greece.
Drawing inspiration from cartoons, nature, candy and video games, Ser's work (a blend of graffiti, comic culture and pop surrealism) employs an arsenal of monstrous but somewhat benign characters through glimpses and images of a bizarre parallel universe. Ser's work is often in the form of large-scale murals, paintings placed in important collections and commercial work, created in association with major local and international brands.
His work can be found all around Greece as well as the U.K., France, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Cyprus and other European countries.
Argiris Ser was born and raised in Thessaloniki, Greece. He studied graphic design and comics. Argiris became involved with street art in 1993, when he started to make graffiti.
