Anna Makri is a Greek multi-disciplinary artist based in London , specialising in, art direction, garment construction and design, fine art and set design. Her journey in London started with her degree in London College of Fashion and continued with her work in various brands in the luxury industry such as Roksanda, Craig Green, T LABEL and Charles Jeffrey Loverboy. Anna has been part of the creative team in numerous Fashion Weeks in London, Milan and Paris as well as creative photoshoots and custom-made clothing for editorials. Her multi-dimensional skills and her experience in craft making have allowed her to be flexible and versatile; today she works as a freelance artist and collaborates with different independent artists and brands every season whether it is on creating and stitching a collection, constructing sets for runways or curating shows and events. With painting being at the core of her practice, she has showcased her work in restaurants across London, The holy Art Gallery and in her own art exhibition ‘KSENOI’. Anna’s work is distinct by her abstract use of colour and shape, use of negative space and hand drawn elements. Her multi-faceted artistic path has led her to pursue an independent practice as a painter, set designer, art director and most recently her debut in curation with the exhibition ‘KSENOI’.

- Coalescence for 'Ksenoi' Exhibition'Ksenoi' is a project and exhibition showcasing and supporting Greek immigrant artists. Coalescence is a project that was created in response to the exhibition's theme 'Knot', which explores the sense of identity that is created by being Greek and living abroad. The knot is seen here as a form of confusion as well as connection and merging of the different identities within someone who is a foreigner living in a different country, based on my own personal experience.
