While working all day as a musician, Georgia Gremouti remembers staying up all night so she could draw and sculpt. “I realised then how important visual artwork was to me.” An artist in every sense, the Greek textile worker creates surprising fabric pieces where she combines many techniques such as pleating and origami. She experiments mainly with textiles and paper, exploring their visual potential. Strongly inspired by biology, Georgia's works derive from micro-landscapes – organic shapes that find an unexpected harmony. Before experimenting with textiles, she studied sculpture at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design in Boston, which has had a real influence on her approach to materials and her way of exploring dimensions.
