I am a writer and visual artist, a publishing and content professional. My name is Maria Exarchou.

The love for image grew in me hand in hand with the love for text. First, I worked separately on them and then I slowly began to combine them. The Poetry Issues project traces the history of this experimentation. As I grow artistically so does my vision for my future work, that is expanding, leaving the paper, coming back to it, taking it places. I have so many beautiful plans and I hope to share the results with you!

Since 2023 I study for an MFA at the Piet Zwart Institute in Rotterdam, NL, in an effort to enhance and further develop my artistic practice. You can find some of my projects there, on my wiki page.

Here you will find a list and brief descriptions of the exhibitions I have participated in with my work since 2012.
