Biography
I was born in Thessaloniki, Greece where I studied applied arts, illustration/sketching and graphic design/motion graphic design. In 2006 I relocated to London to further my education, completing a BA (Hons) in Fine Art at Middlesex University and an MA in Arts Management and Policy, Curatorial and Educational pathway at Birkbeck University of London.
As an artist I have collaborated with national and international galleries. I have also contributed to various publications in Taiwan, USA, Greece and the UK and have been a resident artist for 2 years at Beckenham Place Mansion studios, London UK.
Parallel to my artistic endeavours, I have curated exhibitions and events at various locations internationally. I worked as a Curator and Project Manager at Topolski Century Gallery at Waterloo, South Bank and as an Art Teacher for community workshops. I have also been the Co-Founder & Director of 'Collaborative Art', an artist run non-profit organisation focusing on collaborative projects, exhibitions and events. I have also partnered with Brunswick East for 2 years for 'The Exchange' project, independent artists’ library and bookstore, collaborating with artists from around the globe, housing works from emerging artists as well as established artists whose publications can also be found in Tate Galleries London, Whitechapel gallery, V & A and MOMA New York.
As a freelance graphic designer and more recently as a motion graphic designer I worked with several clients such as production companies, universities, galleries and on commercial work for individual clients.
Some of my clients include Prosenghisi Ltd video production company, Palinor media production, Danezis Stories media production company, National Taiwan University of Arts.
