A day in Paris

Paris is always a good idea, isn’t? I think it still is my favourite European city (ever since I was little) and I think I would definitely want to move there at some point. Traveling through Europe by car makes you want to discover and travel through as many places as possible. So we spent […]

Last week I went to the exhibition opening of a Greek artist, represented by The Blender Gallery. Konstantinos Patsios presented his first solo exhibition in the UK, ‘The Twisted Odyssey” at the Underdog Art Gallery in London, curated by Michaela Vergottis. The industrial space was a great combination to his contemporary works of art that are influenced by Homer’s rapsodies. […]

I haven’t written an art post in a while and decided to take on to Tumblr, the best place to discover art and anything else. I found the drawings of Italian Marie-Esther (or Gaia Alari) and was mesmerised by the detail in them and the way the person comes to life through her drawings. She’s […]

Visual designer and illustrator: Charis Chevis

While I was trying to discover some Greek designers I stumbled upon an visual artist and designer; Charis Tsevis, who makes unusual mosaic images. The reason I describe his art as unusual is because his pictures comprise of endless tiny pictures, which as an end result produce a face – mostly a recognisable one. His work became […]

I don’t know how I lived my weekends before I started going to markets, be it flower (Columbia Road Flower Market), food, antique/vintage etc. It is honestly such a fun day out, as you get to experience different cultures, people and the sunshine if you’re lucky. Last weekend I went to the Duke of York Square market […]

On that occasion, I thought I would share with you all some pictures Nick Knight of SHOWstudio took of the Angels for a 10 Magazine editorial coming out in Spring. I was lucky enough to be […]
