Martha Sakellariou

Studio E7 

Medium: Interdisciplinary/Installation 

Martha Sakellariou uses interdisciplinary, collaborative and public engagement practices to create site-specific multimedia installations. This also includes performances and interventions. As a visual artist Martha works with a variety of media such as video, audio, edibles, textiles, sculpture, paintings and prints.

Martha's practice includes inhabited spaces, structures of living, objects and visual storytelling. Making use of her personal life and circumstances she explores themes on home, life rituals, domesticity and identity. Martha puts an interest in the way individuals and communities respond to urban and suburban spaces. She engages concepts that embrace both politics and aesthetics.

Martha has exhibited and curated art projects on independent and collaborative platforms internationally. She obtained her Master’s in Fine Art printmaking from the Royal College of Art in London UK, and her BFA in painting from the National Athens School of Fine Art, Greece. She was born in Athens, lived and worked in London for seventeen years, and moved to California in 2014.
