Myrsini Alexandridi

Myrsini (Greek, born in 1991) was originally trained as an architect and it’s her architectural background that shaped her art practice. She is currently based in Stockholm and working as an interior architect and independent artist since 2018. Her work focuses on painting bespoke ceramic tiles, vases, and plates and she is always experimenting with materials and techniques.

Greece has been always her artistic reference point and through the years of living in Scandinavia, her interest has been in harmonizing the Mediterranean and Northern European aesthetics. Greek tradition, architecture, and topography influences deeply her work.

Her work is balancing between architecture and art and her studies and career as an architect have made her understand and embrace the idea of craftsmanship. Through this idea, she began to experiment with the materiality and tactility of the tiles. Through her painting, she aims to create something extraordinary from the ordinary, working with the tiles the same way other artists paint on canvas.
