Larissa Orfanidou

Larissa Orfanidou, born in Kazakhstan on October 15, 1968, and currently residing in Greece, is a versatile artist and writer who is deeply committed to infusing her creations with a profound passion for life and a resolutely positive perspective on the complexities of our modern world. Larissa's artistic journey is fueled by a mission to share her enthusiasm and happiness, believing that by doing so, she can contribute to a more robust and joyous global community. She considers herself exceptionally fortunate to have discovered two remarkable callings in her life: the art of poetry and the craft of fashioning unique works of art using alternative materials, with wool as her primary medium. Her creative pursuits began in Kazakhstan, where, from the tender age of seven, she was already composing poems and songs. Later, her artistic journey took her into the realm of wool artistry. Initially, Larissa crafted wool paintings for her enjoyment. However, the allure of her creations extended to captivate friends and family with their organic warmth and originality. This heartwarming response led Larissa to share her artistic endeavours with a broader audience. Central to her artistry is a steadfast commitment to employing only organic materials. Wool, the cornerstone of her creations, is delicately complemented with natural silk to create exquisite accents. The canvas for her art is a foundation of pure cotton, chosen for its sturdy support of her intricate work. In her studio, Larissa employs various techniques, including dry, wet, and mixed wool twisting, allowing her to explore multiple possibilities within her chosen medium. The outcome is a diverse and unique collection of artworks, each a testament to her dedication and creative ingenuity. Larissa believes that her wool art transcends visual delight; it is a heartfelt gift that can be cherished by a broad spectrum of recipients, spanning generations and relationships. Her creations are ideal for various occasions, from birthdays and weddings to housewarmings or as a special treat for oneself. Larissa Orfanidou's art, like the artist herself, celebrates the richness of life and the boundless beauty that can emerge from the simplest and most natural materials.
