About:
Anna Botou lives and works in Halkidiki. Currently an undergraduate of the Visual and Applied Arts at Aristotle University. Anna holds a B.S. in Organization and Business Management from E.A.P. and in Nursing. She studied the art of Hagiography at the holy monastery of Evangelismos in Ormylia and worked for six years as a hagiographer.
Her work is characterized by diversity as she uses an assortment of practices with a variety of media and materials, such as ceramic sculptures, paper, wooden objects, urban waste, industrial decorative objects and video, all with anthropocentric orientation, flirting with the constant renegotiation of the boundaries between collective and individual, the influence of new technologies on the individual but also the community, the search for new balance between the familiar and the unexpected, the pursuit of a multidimensional approach and interpretation of themself, are some of the elements that determine the conceptual content of her works.
