About

Born in Athens in 1971, I studied Business (BA Hons) and Management (MSc) in the U.K., followed by certified courses in Philosophy, Culture, and Fine Arts. Before turning to art full-time, I worked in advertising and for the ATHENS 2004 Olympic Games Organising Committee, while also managing a privately owned boutique hotel in Naxos.

Since 2010, my practice has developed through two interconnected paths: an extensive body of abstract painting, exhibited internationally, and ECHOES, an ongoing artistic research project initiated in 2010 and first publicly presented in Athens in 2020.

ECHOES explores artistic creation not as a final outcome, but as a multilayered process involving gesture, memory, participation, and the unconscious. Within this framework, elements often considered secondary in painting, such as the cleaning of brushes, the accumulation of material traces, and the layering of colour, are reconsidered as autonomous forms of aesthetic expression, carriers of meaning and emotional intensity. The project unfolds through installation and participatory elements, inviting viewers to reconsider the boundaries between artistic creation, perception, and interpretation.

My painting practice remains a core component of my work. I approach painting intuitively, working directly on the canvas without preparatory sketches, guided by immediacy, gesture, and emotional response. Rather than representing what I see, I explore what is felt, allowing colour and form to emerge as expressions of internal states.

Abstract painting, for me, is a space of openness and exploration, a way to engage with perception, emotion, and transformation through material presence.

My work has been shown in solo and group exhibitions in galleries, museums, and contemporary art fairs in Greece and internationally, including Athens, Thessaloniki, Mykonos, Santorini, Cyprus, New York, London, Paris, Rome, Venice, Copenhagen, Barcelona, Vienna, Tokyo, and Dubai. It is included in private and institutional collections and has been presented in venues such as the Athens War Museum, the OTE Group Telecommunications Museum, the Copelouzos Family Art Museum in Athens, Museu da CARRIS in Lisbon, Palazzo Albrizzi-Capello in Venice, MUST Museo Storico in Lecce, and Expo Metro Barcelona.

I live and work in Athens.
