The artist

Its more than a decade that I’m involved in Ceramic Art. I started ceramics classes in Live Cities, a non profit organization in Athens and continued with a plethora of seminars and workshops along side with a lot of experiments and studies from the international bibliography.

Starting from 2017, my artwork is exhibitited every year in the annual Ceramics Art Exhibition in Athens.

I teach handbuilding and wheel throwing and run workshops in alternative firings (raku, naked raku, saggar, obvara etc), as well as advanced techniques.

From 2019 I share my living between Athens and Corfu, where I created a second ceramics studio with a gas fired kiln.

I love contemporary ceramics forms as well as I love traditional techniques from around the world. I love and work in technology too, I play and write music with my synthesizers, I run as president and CEO a non profit organization for culture, and I dream and act for a better world.

With all above in my head, its inevitable for my works in ceramics to be mostly conceptual. In addition, as a Greek, I try to include a touch of ancient or modern Greece, both in my sculptures and in my utilitarian ceramics.

The workshop

The workshop is located in Kavalouri village in Northern Corfu,  on your way to Roda. Look in the map included in ‘Contact’ page.

All the nessesary equipment and all kinds of materials is here to create anything i can imagine.

Inside the workshop

The fundamentals: A large table, the slab roller, the pottery wheel, the kilns, music, warmness and good lightning. All clays and materials are ‘hidden’ in cabinets.

I am still working to organize it,  its new, just moved from Athens…

The gas kiln

For my new workshop I decided to use a gas kiln. This type of kiln can be used to achieve reduction enviroment, in which many chinese, japanese and contemporary glaze recipes mature.

You can see the fire rising from the holes in the bottom of the kiln.

The raku kiln

A DIY kiln with ceramic fiber inside. I took into account every detail to make it functional and portable.

Handles, wheels, seperates in two pieces, the lid is tall enough so when I open the kiln I can grab the pieces more easily.
