In this episode of Arteculations, co-founder Tamara Chalabi speaks with Iliodora Margelos, a multidisciplinary artist from Athens, Greece, known for her unique visual language using steel wire screens and embroidery. They discuss Margelos' collaboration with Inaash, an organization supporting Palestinian women in refugee camps, to create the 'Stoking Embers' embroidery series.
Margelos shares insights into her process, the influence of motherhood, and how her art bridges cultural and geographic divides. The conversation also touches upon her inspirations, the evolution of her work towards a more sculptural approach, and her future projects.
