Elysia Athanatos

Elysia Athanatos studied Art and Sculpting in the UK and Italy, and then travelled all the way to China to explore and master porcelain, a material that combines the qualities of clay and glass. After China she did a specialization course in Faenza and an Artist Residency in Denmark, where she explored wood firing. While working, Elysia focuses on the relationship between the inside and the outside, ‘the void’ and how it gets filled, producing a complete piece of art. For Elysia, Clay, Vessel and Ceramics are terms that carry the weight of the past and its memory. She respects their history but does not feel confined by it. Her life and work are all about communicating thoughts and feelings.
