Teaching Approach

​​My workshops are grounded in over a decade of international fine art practice and sustained engagement with material and landscape.

Each session is purposefully designed to balance freedom and structure. I guide participants through informed material exploration and compositional thinking, while emphasising the importance of playfulness and intuitive experimentation.

Participants work with natural materials sourced directly from the Cycladic environment, learning to feel and better understand the local topos through hands-on engagement.

  • Island rhythm

    Living and working on the Greek islands has shaped both my fine art practice and the way I teach. The pace, light and geological conditions of the Cyclades inform the materials I work with and the structure of each atelier session. Working within this island rhythm encourages attentiveness, patience and direct engagement with natural matter.

  • Material as a teacher

    Within the rhythm of the island, natural materials become a point of connection and a central thread throughout the workshop experience. Earth pigments, marble dust, and found elements from the surrounding landscape guide the creative process, inviting close observation and responsive making.

  • Learning through making

    The teaching encourages quiet structure, reflection, and a sense of grounding, inviting participants to slow down, attune to their environment, and create in dialogue with place. You will leave with a finished material study and a deeper understanding of how form can emerge through contact with matter. All levels are welcome.

  • Trusting the process

    My small-scale, curated and guided workshops invite you to explore and enjoy the creative process. My approach centres on empowering trust, both in the process itself and in your own capacity to create. Through this, you develop practical tools and ways of thinking and feeling that stay with you long after the workshop has ended.

Meet your teacher

Educated at Chelsea College of Art & Design in London she graduated with First Class Honours (2009).

Her research-based practice has been presented in institutional contexts, including the Museum of Classical Archaeology at the University of Cambridge, UK. Her work continues to investigate material, structure, and geological presence.

Through Islander Art Lab, she extends her artistic practice into small-scale, curated workshops, offering guided, material-based experiences shaped by the Cycladic landscape.
