In the life of graphic designer Charis Tsevis, his main passion is creating mosaics. Moreover, he creates them not only for his own pleasure, but also to order for world famous brands - from Time magazine and Sports Illustrated to IKEA and Toyota.
Cheris began studying mosaic techniques in 1997 and since then has been quite successful in this business. But the artist is not going to stop there and continues to look for new ways to compose such images, remaining open to any experiments.
“Cheris Tsevis is a person who strives every moment of this intricate life to go beyond creativity and innovation just to show us all that life is not as complicated and uncertain as we are used to thinking it. At any time he can turn upside down or turn inside out all views of the human world and its creations with just a few clicks of his computer mouse,”- this is how fans of his talent on the Internet say about Cheris and his work.
Cheris Tsevis is a designer living and working in Athens, Greece. In 1997 he founded Tsevis Visual Design, where his wife Eva also works. By the way, among the mosaic illustrations of Cheris, images of his wife are found very, very often, and Eva herself calls her husband “one of the most gifted people whom she had to meet”.
Cheris is a very versatile person. As a designer and artist, he also lectures at various universities, writes books about working in graphic editors, as well as articles for the most famous Greek computer magazine, RAM Magazine.

Pictures from icons. "Symbolic" portraits of famous people by Charis Tsevis
At one time A.S. Pushkin wrote: "I have erected a monument not made by hands." And many years later, the same phrase can be repeated in relation to people who are in no way connected either with poetry, or with music, or with painting. But their work, nevertheless, is just as important to the people, and perhaps much more. We are talking about inventors and developers who made a huge contribution to the computer and cyber culture, and whose portraits he immortalized in his "symbolic" work
