I was born in Athens. I studied at Panteion University of Athens. My interest in the market but also in the person buying behavior, led me to the postgraduate studies in marketing. After several years in the private sector, my artistic nature prevailed and my involvement with the visual arts changed the course of my life. Having always had painting in my daily life (I participated in various painting exhibitions) and my need to create shapes with my hands using living materials, they brought me close to the leather. Loving the bright colors and combining the Native Americans, with our Winged God of Love from ancient Greek mythology and having a special weakness and faith in the Angels ... manitou emerged!
MANITOU
The Manitou leather jewelry line is a match of the culture of the Native Indians, with the Ancient Greek mythology, but also with the invisible energy that protects the earth today. The influence of the Native Indians is embodied in the materials, colors and shapes they used in their daily lives and in their faith, making the totems that they considered to protect them and they were their God. The influence from Ancient Greek mythology, focuses on the winged God of Love, who embodies not only the power of erotic love, but also the creative power of immovable nature and was the primordial Light responsible for the existence and order of all things in the Universe. Finally, the influence of the invisible energy of the earth today, rests on the faith in the guardian Angels and the Fairies, who are the first to protect humanity from above, while fairies protect plants on earth. The combination of these three influences, led to the creation of the Manitou leather jewelry line, in the shape of feathers and leaves. The colors and patterns are intense and harmonious, combining the three influences in a result that has movement, is alive and radiates joy! All of the above are grounded in the here and now with semi-precious stones and crystals, which come from the bowels of the earth and provide people with extra protection. Feathers, joyfull colors and crystals, turn Manitou jewelry into amulets.
