MY NAME, DANAI, GIVES A CLUE OF HOW I AM AND HOW I DESIGN, A MIX. BORN IN BARCELONA IN 2000, ON MY MOTHER'S SIDE GREEK AND ON MY FATHER'S SIDE CATALAN. IN BOTH FAMILIES CREATIVITY FLOWED AND WAS REFLECTED IN MY TWO GRANDMOTHERS WHO UNKNOWINGLY SHOWED ME THE WAY TO FOLLOW.

SINCE I WAS A CHILD I WAS PASSIONATE ABOUT THE WORLD OF ART AND FASHION; I PAINTED, PLAYED WITH TEXTURES, SEWED WITH A SEWING MACHINE AND SPENT HOURS MAKING COSTUME JEWELRY. IT WAS CLEAR TO ME THAT I WAS GOING TO DEDICATE MYSELF TO SOMETHING RELATED TO THESE TWO WORLDS, SO WHEN I GOT TO HIGH SCHOOL I CHOSE ART, WHICH ALLOWED ME TO LEARN AND LIVE ART IN A DIFFERENT WAY. TWO YEARS LATER I STARTED MY CAREER IN IED BARCELONA; MARKETING, COMMUNICATION AND FASHION DESIGN. THE MOST COMPLICATED AND AT THE SAME TIME THE MOST IMPORTANT STAGE OF MY LIFE. DURING THIS TIME I HAVE KNOWN MYSELF AS AN ARTIST, I HAVE BEEN TRAINED AND I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO EXPLOIT MY CREATIVITY. THE FACT THAT I AM HALF GREEK AND HALF CATALAN IS VERY WELL REFLECTED IN MY WAY OF CREATING, A MIXTURE OF CONTRASTING STYLES, MIXING TECHNIQUES SUCH AS COLLAGE, PATTERN MAKING AND MOULAGE TO ACHIEVE UNIQUE VOLUMES. DESIGNS FULL OF COLORS, PRINTS AND MANIPULATIONS THAT I CREATE DIGITALLY AND MANUALLY.

THE YEAR 2022, MY LAST YEAR OF MY CAREER CONCLUDES WITH MY COLLECTION FORMED BY FIVE LOOKS CALLED AGAPI STA NERA, IT IS A MIX BETWEEN SPORTY AND ROMANTIC, FEMININE AND FULL OF COLORS THAT IS INSPIRED BY THE LOVE STORY OF MY PARENTS, TWO ELITE ATHLETES WHO MET AND FELL IN LOVE WHEN THEY WERE JUST TWO TEENAGERS, AND CONTINUED TO LOVE EACH OTHER IN SILENCE UNTIL THEY MET AGAIN NINE YEARS LATER.
