Stratis Mortakis

To work in videogames and film as a concept artist for the first part of my career. Later grow into a science fiction artist.

I grew up reading science fiction stories of imaginary worlds and fantastic space stations, which inspired me when I was young. Eventually video-games like Halo Combat Evolved made me realise that it was possible to materialise these fictional worlds and experience them, the way we experience a holiday trip. It was a wonderful escape from the mundane, everyday life. Movies like Bladerunner showcased for me the brilliance of world-building and the artistic creation of fictional stories.
