About Dafni

I come from Greece, where I also studied Architecture. I came to Wageningen for a master's degree, to learn more about how society and nature interact with each other. 

This path made me very interested to link art and education in all sorts of ways. I started facilitating nature education classes, creating art-based research material and facilitating workshops on creativity and education.  Aside from that I coordinated a local community newspaper that sheds alternative light to research, learning and academia (the Jester). Those activities made me who I am today, and gave a diverse, but clear direction to my work an an artist. 

I believe that art, play and storytelling (combined) can be a wonderful tool to bring people together, discuss over various topics and learn. My favourite topics so far include
feminism, activism, relationship with more-than-human, and the role of community in life. 

I work in different places: My workshops are an old cigar factory, a cultural community centre, and of course the world, since live sketching is a part of my practice.
