About
Nona is a Cyprus-born visual and movement artist whose work merges painting with performance. By creating artwork on reflective and transparent surfaces, she constructs optical interventions that dissolve boundaries between life and art. Using concepts of kinesiology, she disrupts the stillness of two-dimensional space, shifting perspectives and making static images feel alive. She is interested in crafting moments of confusion and wonder—where the audience is momentarily unsure if they are looking at reality or art. Her research focuses on those moments of realization where realities blur, and perception transforms.
Nona is trained in ballet and contemporary dance, and also holds a degree in Geography from Royal Holloway, University of London. She has contributed to short films and performances and recently stepped into immersive theater under the creative direction of Dimitry Melkin for Kolla Factory of Culture. Alongside her performance work, she has participated in visual art exhibitions and completed a residency at Needle Festival 2024, exploring the cultural heritage of her hometown, Larnaca.
