Education
She graduated from the Department of Sculpture of the Athens School of Fine Arts, (G. Lappas lab) in 1996. In 2001 she obtained the interdisciplinary Master in Digital Arts, granted by the ASFA in collaboration with the National Technical University of Athens.
2013:
Preparing a proposal for a PhD Thesis. During the whole year 2013 in collaboration with Mr Pantelis Bassakos, Professor of Philosophy at the Department for Political Science and History at the Panteion University of Political and Social Science, she has started working on an original thesis proposal, which investigates complex concepts of philosophy and the art of performing, the relation of performance art to rhetoric, as well as the way in which the art of performance is constituted or expressed through rhetorical elements. A thesis proposal is about to be officially made on this subject. The project does not follow the trodden path, so there have been difficulties as to its consistency with the traditional field of the fine arts. By the end of January 2014 the procedure for the official proposal of the thesis at the Panteion University will have been completed.

2008
10 - 14 April. Workshop in the Mykonos annex. Experimental design project and processing the first idea in model, based on the randomness of a given fixing point. The work of Elias Karadimas, from the Department of Computer Engineering at the University of Patras, referred to “the rapid growth of the number of images, which, combined with the inefficiency of recovery systems based on the image content to export semantic features, led to the introduction of humans in the experimental process. A very common and successful way of using the human system of vision is through recording of the eyes’ movements. According to the recording system proposed in this project there is a recording of the fixing points that resulted during the observation of the background images. Texture characters are extracted from these points according to two different methods, the Gabor filters and the Distinctive Cosine Transformation, which result in the formation of multidimensional vectors. These vectors are then compared in pairs through the non-parametric WW test, creating a table of distances. Inserting a given image in the system its texture characters are compared to those of the background, giving an additional dimension to the table of distances. The visual depiction of the relation among all images (including the one requested) takes place on a three-dimensional map through multidimensional escalation (MDS algorithm). These results, coming from the Gabor Filters, are more liable and make feasible the extension of the system by using a larger image database. This project was the reason for this exercise.
