Iliostalakti Konstantinidis, born in 1974 in Zurich to Greek immigrant parents, discovered her passion for painting early in life. Despite dreaming of studying art, limited support and discouragement led her to pursue commercial studies instead. After experiencing burnout a decade ago, she reconnected with her artistic voice and began creating again with determination. Her work, diverse in technique, focuses on emotional expression. Alongside a full-time job and family life, she remains deeply committed to her practice. Since 2018, she has held solo and group exhibitions in Zurich, New York, Gstaad, Dubai, and Basel, collaborating with initiatives such as Art Connects Women.
