Read MoreI was born in Damascus, Syria, to a Lebanese father and a Polish mother. I grew up in Poland and later moved to a war-torn Lebanon. In my later teens, I moved to Greece and then Cyprus. At the age of 17, I left Europe to study in New York City at the Fashion Institute of Technology after which I started my career as a fashion designer and a textile artist. In 1992 I moved to London to explore Fine Arts and in 2004, I graduated from Chelsea School of Arts. In London I got married and had 4 children. At present we all lived in Greece. I speak fluent Greek, English, French, Arabic and Polish.
My art has always been my origin and my destination, my home; my reference point to a life that changes constantly. I would like to create awareness and emotion, to connect the viewers to their inner selves, to analyse the objectification of the individual and senseless reproduction that reflects our consumer society today. I try to awaken individuals through my art with the subliminal use of color serving as traces of hope among the greys and blacks that represent the torment between the present sentiments of desperation and the future of hope.
My art is my constant journey to conquer myself.
