I believe that to be an artist is to discover the invisible.
To give it a face, a suitable costume and it’s right to exist.
That’s what I try to do.

TULLE. A fascinating fabric. Lightweight and very fine. A fabric that can look fragile but is in fact very strong and can hold its shape despite its ethereal appearance. It comes in a wide variety of colors,from the most tender pink to the darkest black.I have used tulle in many ways, including pleated and twisted into sculptural forms.I have put layer upon layer of cut-out shapes of different colors to get that watery, floating look, which,when exposed to the surrounding light, can transform the image from being intensely bright into the full range of greyish black.This playing with the light has always surprised me!ON STAGE

TRACES and FRAGMENTS
A commission for The Swedish Institute at Athens. 2016-2017.
Photo: Ulrika Walmark.
Inspired by an endless source of traces and fragments from the ancient times, I collected bits and pieces from here and there,I gave them new colors and new feathers and I let them free to fly into a new life.
Commission for the Swedish Church in Athens.
TREE OF LIFE.
A peaceful corner of the church. To meditate at. Read one's prayers. A place for stillness.
In my studio. Every leaf asked for its own look and size. Every leaf got painted, printed,dyed and embroidered. Some blue birds came flying.They liked the tree and decided to make it their new home.Some olives fell into the greenery.I let them there. Their roundness and color brought a happy contrast to leafs, brunches,and birds.The Tree of Life finally took its shape. An olive tree!
