My perspective is shaped by the rich historical context of Athens, Greece, where I was born and raised, the birthplace of democracy. My studies in philosophy and theology over the past ten years have created a solid conceptual foundation for thinking about art in relation to the humanities. As a firm believer in the democratic ethos, I find today's obsession with political correctness limiting and even threatening at times as it dictates social norms. It stifles our society by imposing a rigid code of behavior and thinking for all. This code of social conduct mirrors archaic, religious frameworks of the past. 


My work focuses on women's evolution and influence throughout history through the lens of domestic life. I am inspired by small, everyday domestic objects of labor, including embroidery, recipes, clothing, and other artifacts that are often overlooked and underappreciated, often found buried in homes in a trunk or in storage. Women have always been held to a higher standard, to behave, be polite and uphold societal norms. This is still deeply embedded in the experience of women's everyday lives. My work brings voice to the women whose stories of domestic labor and creativity have been silenced. I use materials that are already embedded with histories often discarded or no longer having their original function or use. The material in my work is specific. I think about the materials past usefulness, and practicality but I also am interested in the spirituality and the psychological comfort they provided women of the past. 


Spiritual practices such as the deification of water, the sanctification of icons, the revelation of ancient texts, the representation of customs on sacred temple images and depictions but above all the ignorance, the naivete which were transformed into strength and power through art. What mystifies me when it comes to more archaic forms of artistry is the didactic force and the power in capsulating history and ontology. Historically, women used to have a role as priestesses and have been the guardians of traditions. Every celebration had a social influence, and each tradition had a historical or theological content. By creating interdisciplinary time-based work, I can combine these rich histories with contemporary narratives.
