A few words about Me
I am a graduate from the Aristotle University of Fine Arts in Thessaloniki, Greece where I experimented and studied painting in the atelier of Makis Theofylaktopoulos, having been awarded a full scholarship during my studies. In my primary steps, I was initiated in painting and sculpturing by Vassilis Haros.
After my studies, I have been exploring and experimenting on inspiring ideas in painting and sculpturing, participating in various group exhibitions, in an effort to elaborate and evolve as a well-rounded artist.
In parallel, I have been working as a fine arts teacher for children, following my ambition to instil appreciation & understanding of art to younger generations.
Today, I leave & work in Luxembourg.

Objects, and especially buildings, and their interaction with the human element have profoundly affected my reflection and work to this day. My artistic search follows two directions: one is the removal from the two-dimensional layer and the creation of real volumes and the other is the return to the canvas by means of consecutive entangled layers that allows the readability of a three-dimensional perspective.
