Architect and artist. Panos Pougaridis was born in October 1968 in Thessaloniki where he grew up. He spent some years of his childhood in Florina.
He graduated in 1992 from the Department of Architecture of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
After his studies in architecture he became involved in art and specifically in painting. Later on he was particularly involved in graphic design and participated in commercial - international exhibitions in Italy and Spain.
His constant need for expression and the connection between architecture and art led him to create three-dimensional artworks depicting exclusively cities and villages. Specifically mountain villages and abandoned cities of the world.
