Born in Gjirokastër, Albania, in 1990 to an Albanian-Greek father and an Albanian mother. My family moved to Athens in the early ’90s, where I studied classical music since I was a child and until I earned a piano diploma. I hold a BA in Piano Solo Performance from the Norwegian Academy of Music in Oslo and a BA in Fine Arts from ArtEZ in Arnhem. I am currently pursuing a Master’s in spatial practices - Studio for Immediate Spaces - at Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam.
Central to my artistic research are public space, construction sites, infrastructure, disruption, noise pollution, social-personal dispositions, division of labor, and social class.
Notable participation and exhibitions are the Gelderland Biennial 2022, Pebbles Underground Film and Video Art Festival - Canada, DePont Museum - Tilburg, Museum Arnhem, Het Valkhof Museum - Nijmegen, Veem House - Amsterdam, Theater a/d Rijn — Arnhem, Omstand - Arnhem, De Appel - Amsterdam, W139 - Amsterdam, State of Concept - Athens, Gallery - Athens, Communitism - Athens and MEME - Athens.
