DESIGNERS
Polina Miliou
Athens, Greece
Polina Miliou (b. 1990 Athens, Greece) is a designer and sculptor who creates handmade furniture that embrace color, spontaneity and gestural expression. She often subverts and upcycles humble materials like paper, expanded polystyrene foam and found objects, transforming them into functional art pieces. In her recent work she revisits and adapts traditional furniture by twisting their existing character into playful, monolithic shapes that project forms of primitivism and anonymous art and architecture. She has studied Architecture Engineering in National Technical University of Athens, and has worked in various design studios in Los Angeles.
In 2020 she participated in Sundance Film Festival as a production designer for the performance Anti-Gone by artist Theo Triantafyllidis. She lives and works between Athens, Greece and Los Angeles, US.
Major Museum Exhibition
Works presented at the Benaki Museum (Athens), India Mahdavi Project Room (Paris), Art Athina, and Collectible Fair (Brussels). She had a solo exhibition at Carwan Gallery in Athens in 2022
