TRACE
PATHS
NARRATIVES
I am a filmmaker and audiovisual creator based in Thessaloniki, Greece. My professional journey spans film, television and cultural production, bringing together creative practice and academic research.
My work explores the relationship between image, memory and meaning, with a particular interest in silence, absence, embodiment and the invisible tensions that shape contemporary social experience. I see cinema as a space where imagination, critical reflection and dialogue can meet.
