About Maria-Zoi Tsiligkiridi : Particularly fond of small space architecture and drawing solutions upon implementation, Mariza decided to enter the field of industrial design and manufacture of everyday furniture, lightning fixtures and objects. Her source of inspiration involves streets, old-stuff shops, industries, construction sites, travels and music. She likes to design functional spaces and practical furniture by combining traditional and industrial design in an innovative way. In every construction, each part has a predetermined use. Mariza's products prove the exact opposite. Materials that live in obscurity take a different role. Furniture about to go to waste is dismantled or used unaltered in imaginative and peculiar compositions.
STATEMENT OF ART:
Architecture of both spaces and objects is everywhere. It should make us happy. It is a living organism that should be in the position to transform easily according to the users’ needs. "You must be the change you want to see to the world" (Mahatma Gandhi).
