"Even if I was born a lizard,
I would still be a painter"
My name is Vassiliki Gerokosta, I am a visual artist, a painter of embioelectromagnetic realism.
I work as a painter, art tutor, illustrator & graphic designer.
Born in Athens 1974, now based at the sacred island of Samothraki within whose energetic field I draw all the inspiration for my paintings and teachings since 2009.
I have shared till now 5 solo exhibitions and published 4 poetry books.
My work is a powerful boost on simplicity and abstraction.
Understanding of multidimensional energy through sensitivity and awareness using symbols is my challenge.
I am ready for my next solo and book.
I like to lead a poetic life.
