Alexandros and Eleni are creative wanderers, journeying across diverse artistic landscapes. Their explorations often lead them to puppetry festivals, where they engage in vibrant collaborations and captivating performances and creative workshops. At other times, they delve into the interplay of light and video projections, meticulously crafting their work to achieve perfection.

In yet another facet of their artistic journey, they blend technology with music, participating in improvisational projects where sound and visuals merge seamlessly. With musicians as their partners, they choreograph a spontaneous and dynamic dance between the digital and the organic, pushing the boundaries of artistic expression.

Their work is a testament to their passion for experimentation, collaboration, and the boundless possibilities of art.

Eleni Voyiatzidou was born in Athens and studied Early Childhood Education. Her professional journey began in private kindergartens, where she provided high-quality educational services, focusing on the development of children’s creativity and emotional intelligence. At the same time, she enriched her knowledge by attending specialized seminars in museum education, music and movement, storytelling, and theatrical play, exploring new methods of learning and educational approaches.

In 2004, her thirst for further knowledge led her to the three-year workshop on Theatre Pedagogy and Drama Education, “Scholeio Paixnidiou”. There, she discovered a new educational approach, combining art with education and enhancing her skills in facilitating group engagement through theatrical play. She then collaborated with parent associations, creative activity workshops, and play centers, emphasizing the importance of creative expression in children’s development.

Her ongoing passion for artistic expression drove her to expand her horizons into other art forms, such as dance and the bendir (a traditional drum), which acted as a bridge into the world of physical theatre. From 2009 she discovered the expressive power of movement, the body’s language, and how one can “speak” without words, through movement and silence.

Another significant chapter in her artistic path was her introduction to the art of puppetry. Through puppetry, she discovered an entire world where various techniques and arts harmoniously blend, offering endless possibilities for creation and expression. Since 2011, she has been actively involved in Unima Hellas, and from 2011 to 2017, she held the position of General Secretary. During this period, she played a significant role in organizing and planning puppet theatre festivals and workshops while also representing Greece in International collaborations.

Additionally, her artistic endeavors expanded into the realms of micro cinema and live video projections, where she combined puppetry and visuals to create small narrations, abstract worlds, and experimental storytelling.

Collaborating with musicians, she engaged in improvisational projects that merged sound and imagery, pushing the boundaries of performance and visual art.

With strong dedication, passion, and professionalism, Eleni stands out for her collective spirit, respect towards her collaborators, and creative calmness.

Eleni Vogiatzidou remains committed to exploring both art and education, continuing to inspire and engage through her many years of experience and artistic sensitivity.
