Collages Inspired by a Lifetime of Travel: Apostolos Vafeas

Apostolos Vafeas was born on the picturesque island of Kythnos, Greece. A passionate traveler, he spent over 35 years working in the tourism industry before retiring and turning his attention to collage art — an interest he had cherished alongside his career for many years. His travels around the world have deeply influenced his artistic practice, with each piece reflecting glimpses of the places, cultures, and moments that have stayed with him. We asked Apostolos about his art, creative process, and inspirations.
