Inspiration
Stella Deligianni’s creations capture her experiences. The inspiration comes from everyday life: images, situations, conversations and emotions become lines, curves, folds, angles, and they tell stories. Sometimes simple, sometimes complicated.
Five thematic exhibitions sparked the designing of pieces embodying people, stories and symbolisms. Reworking the idea into a visual narrative, Stella created pieces bearing her personal seal.

Meet Stella
When I hold the metal and the fire in my hands, my whole inner world, everything I experience, gives life to the inanimate material.
the collections
Minimality of form has been a characteristic of Stella Deligianni’s work from the outset. Over the years abstraction has given way to an increasingly Doric simplicity, resulting in striking creations.
