Markella Lousidis

My practice is rooted in an early and intuitive connection to painting, which began in childhood and evolved throughout my formative years. I see art as a way of exploring both personal and collective mythology—drawing inspiration from the sea, nature, and the emotional intensity of the human experience, particularly through a feminine lens.

Having exhibited since the age of seven, my journey has taken me through a range of cultures and artistic communities across Europe and the USA. These experiences have shaped a diverse and evolving visual language that fuses classical references with contemporary themes.

Currently completing my Graduate Diploma at the Royal College of Art (RCA), I continue to expand my journey and deepen my exploration of narrative, symbolism, and transformation—often embracing a neo-Renaissance aesthetic that seeks to reconcile beauty with complexity, stillness with ageless turmoil.
