Story telling through mosaics...
I am Aglaia Peithi from Athens, Greece.
After having studied and practised Law for several years, I decided to focus on the essential and do what I love most : Mosaic !
I took mosaic lessons and seminars in Athens, Greece and Ravenna, Italy and since 2001 I have been working as a Mosaicist.
Working with tesserae, gives me peace of mind and a sense of participation to the magical transformation of hard raw material into an artwork. For me this is the magic of mosaic. I simply adore marble, stone and smalti as my primary raw materials.
You are welcome to explore my site and listen to my stories through tesserrae . . . .
