Evangelia Dimitriou
GRÉCIA
I was born and I live in Athens, Greece. The making of jewelry has not been my initial target.
It came to me as a need of expression in a time when I thought that my creativity had been
lost, but as time was passing by, I discovered many other aspects of myself, a new “me”. Yet I
was surprised, as the experimentation with different materials is an endless procedure with
countless ways of approach so to reach their limits and mine. Part of the delectation in the art
of making is the making of an artificial closure. For three years I have been attending
contemporary jewelry seminars in Anastasia Kandaraki’s studio, called “Anamma”. In the
past ten years I have also attended seminars with various artists such as Akis Goumas,
Dimitris Nikolaidis, Loukia Richards, Ioanna Natsikou, Nicole Polentas, Yoko Izawa, Tanvi
Kant, Gabi Veit, and others. Each one of them opened me a new pathway, for and to creation.
I have also participated to various exhibitions.
