Aris Raissis’ A Moment in Time is an elegant contemporary portrait painting. The fine details of the work implies quiet introspection. This traditional figurative artwork showcases Raissis’ skillful use of light and texture, from the soft glow on the subject’s skin to the delicate depiction of cascading curls adorned with jewels. Rooted in narrative art, the composition invites the viewer to contemplate the subject’s unspoken story.
Aris Raissis was born in Cairo in 1962 and is of Greek origin. He studied at The Chelsea School of Fine Art and The Byam Shaw School of Fine Art and graduated in 1985. During his years at art college he concentrated on figurative painting, portraiture and still-life.
From early on, the artist’s aim has always been to reinstate the techniques of the Old Masters, whilst at the same time, selecting contemporary subject matter. His fascination for expressionism and realism is reflected in his work as a whole.
