Olympia is a UK-qualified architect of Greek-Bulgarian origin and a graduate of the Architectural Association in London. Her career has taken her across six cities—London, Sofia, Athens, Singapore, Hamburg, and now Venice—each leaving a distinct mark on her creative approach. In her artistic practice, Olympia operates at the intersection of art and architecture, drawing on her global experiences and passions for art, travel, and photography.
Based in Venice for the past three years, she has been documenting the city through her photography, using images to create visually rich, layered digital collages. Her works reflect her architectural training, blending detailed research with a desire to understand and represent her urban environment. Motivated to move beyond typical tourist views of Venice, she aims to capture a more personal, nuanced perspective.
As an architect, Olympia continues to bridge art, culture, and architecture in her work. She has collaborated with well-known firms such as Grimshaw, WOHA, and UNA, contributing to notable projects including the Lars Müller Publishers Nomadic Bookshop for the Salone del Mobile in Milan, the Anish Kapoor Art Foundation at Palazzo Manfrin, the LAS Pavilion for the 2024 Venice Art Biennale, and the Antarctic Resolution research publication.
