Areas of research and interest
She creates site-specific installations and she experiments with various media in sculpture, drawings, photography, video and sound projects, performances and computer live broadcast installations. Her artistic practice examines the relationship between the artwork and urban space, the notion of the ephemeral, and the interrelation between movement, material and sound. Currently, her work investigates the personal and social implications of loss. Relationships lingering between the appetite for life and the frenzy of death. In 2011 she created a platform by the name "City Travellers", a collective discussion about art and philosophy in Athens. She has been the main coordinator of many open projects about sculpture and
