Yeti (b. 1996) is a multidisciplinary artist living and working between Cyprus and Greece. He studied at the Athens School of Fine Arts and completed a study semester at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. Beginning with graffiti at the age of thirteen, his early engagement with public space evolved into a broader exploration of painting, murals, sculpture, and installation.

Working primarily with oil and spray paint, Yeti creates layered compositions that merge street aesthetics with symbolic and art-historical references. His practice reflects on the fragility of human existence, addressing themes of life, death, transformation, and the tension between humanity’s self-importance and nature’s enduring cycles. Drawing from philosophy, religion, anti-colonial discourse, and Jungian archetypes, his works unfold as surreal visual narratives charged with emotional and existential intensity.

Working under the pseudonym ‘Yeti,’ the artist separates personal identity from artistic practice.

Stella Kapezanou (b. 1977) is a Greek artist working across figurative painting and ceramic sculpture. Her practice explores the emotional architecture of femininity, examining the shifting spaces between power and vulnerability. Often depicting women poised between stillness and tension, her protagonists inhabit interiors that feel both intimate and staged, as if suspended within unresolved narratives.

Through vibrant color, stylized environments, and symbolic motifs, ranging from decorative patterns to enigmatic animals, Kapezanou creates scenes where intimacy and distance coexist. Beneath the polished surfaces, her figures reveal psychological complexity and subtle commentary on contemporary lifestyles, consumerism, and identity.

She studied at the Athens School of Fine Arts and at Chelsea College of Arts in London. In 2024 she received the Fulbright Artist Fellowship. Her work has been presented in exhibitions across Europe, the United Kingdom, and the United States. She lives and works in Athens.

Mariandrie (b. 1989) is a Cypriot multidisciplinary artist working across textiles, installation, and painting. Her practice merges contrasting notions, male and female, self and other, rigidity and softness, past and present, creating hybrid forms that bridge craft and contemporary art. Through material experimentation, she challenges societal constructions of gender while proposing inclusive narratives rooted in identity, memory, belonging, and cultural heritage.

Textiles are central to her work. Through embroidery, knitting, sewing, and unconventional materials, she reclaims fiber as a medium of resilience, resistance, and emotional expression. Traditionally associated with the domestic and the feminine, these materials become tools to question social constructions of gender while exploring identity, memory, and cultural heritage.

Mariandrie holds a BA in Fine Arts from Lancaster University and an MA in Visual Arts in Education from European University Cyprus. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is included in private collections and the State Gallery of Cyprus.

Lefki Savvidou (b. 1990) is a contemporary Cypriot artist whose practice explores human relationships and perceptions of life in the 21st century. Working across text, image, and narrative, her work examines the intersection of individual experience and collective consciousness, drawing from everyday interactions and fleeting moments to reveal hidden dimensions within the mundane.

Text formed the foundation of her early works, creating narratives that reveal emotional and social complexities. In recent series she expanded this exploration through aerograph painting, producing hazy, cinematic compositions in a red sepia palette reminiscent of sun-faded 1980s film.

Her forthcoming body of work marks a return to text, referencing Southern Gothic imagery, rural decay, and religious symbolism. Savvidou holds degrees from Middlesex University and University College Dublin. Her works are held in the State Gallery of Contemporary Cypriot Art and the Presidential Palace of Cyprus.

Johannes Holt Iversen (b. 1989) is a Danish artist based in Amsterdam whose practice moves between painting and sculpture. He holds a BFA from the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam and trained through an apprenticeship with Danish painter and sculptor Erik Rytter, a former assistant to Poul Gernes.

Iversen’s work explores the interaction between light, shadow, and material, resulting in hybrid forms that exist between painting and sculpture. Using industrial materials and technologies, including retroreflective surfaces, chrome pigments, and construction-based materials, his works respond to surrounding space and shift in appearance depending on light and the viewer’s movement.

Drawing from natural and cultural phenomena, his practice merges abstraction with references to real-world structures. His works are held in collections including Statens Kunstfond, Danske Bank, and Aarhus University.

Elena Adamou (b. 1991) lives and works in Nicosia, Cyprus. She studied Painting at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan, where she also completed an MA in Costume Design. During her time in Milan, she worked as an artist, performer, and textile laboratory technician before returning to Cyprus in 2021.

Her multidisciplinary practice spans embroidery, textile manipulation, installation, and video. Adamou’s work explores the intimate dimension of time, the relationship between the body and personal objects, and the idea of belonging within both familiar and transient environments. She approaches the idea of origin not only as a reference to birthplace but also as a starting point for broader social reflection.

Central to her work is the notion of “safe spaces,” environments where vulnerability and quiet forms of resistance allow individuals to exist and express themselves freely.

Danae Patsalou (b. 1999) is a Cypriot visual artist based in Nicosia. She holds a BA in Fine Arts from Falmouth University and an MA in Arts and Cultural Management from King’s College London.

Working primarily through drawing and painting, Patsalou explores themes of culture, heritage, and landscape. Her work invites viewers to reconsider familiar environments through subtle and alternative perspectives. Characterised by sensitivity and quiet intimacy, her paintings exist at the threshold between abstraction and representation.

Through the motif of landscape, she reflects on the relationship between self and place, examining how memory, cultural inheritance, and lived experience shape connections to the environment. Her practice also engages with the bi-communal reality of Cypriot society, revealing layered histories and shared presences embedded in everyday life.

Her work has been presented in exhibitions across Cyprus, Italy, and the United Kingdom.
