Biography
Eleni Gemeni is a digital artist and experimental photographer based in Luxembourg. Throughout her career she had pursued fields of study and ideas that have interested her. She studied economics, art & interior design and translation & applied linguistics.
Her abiding love in art and science is manifested in her artworks. She dedicated her free time to exploring cosmos, time, life, nature and everything in between. This is also the journey revealed in her art. Emotions, humor, drama, whimsy, mischief, surrealism, allegory and visionary thinking are her ingredients for her creative artworks. For her digital art, she uses mixed techniques. It's a combination of her own drawings, paintings, sketches, collages and photography, embellished with textures and vintage ephemera.
Photo-montage and experimental photo manipulation play a key role to her creative expression. Her post processing and digital art techniques are exploratory and unconventional, making her art a visual journey that embraces the unexpected. Her creative journey continues also with her experimental photography, analog, instant, digital and mobile. Almost a decade ago she was introduced into the lomography pop style photography. She fell in love with the vintage analog flair of the photographs and started experimenting with her lomo and instant cameras. It was only a matter of time before she decided to step into mobile photography and art.
Today, she is an award-winning artist and photographer. She has also received multiple honorable mentions in mobile digital art and photography in major international juried competitions.
She is a featured artist by PHOTOGRAPHIZE Art platform, M.A.D.S. Art Gallery and Light Space & Time online Art Gallery. Many of her works have also been featured in distinguished art publications, social media, online art galleries and exhibited in Europe (Florence, Porto, Zurich, Milan, Fuerteventura, Venice, Brussels and Barcelona) and in the US (New York, Miami, Palo Alto CA, Savannah GA).
