Born in Thessaloniki, Greece. Trained in Environmental Engineering at the Technical University of Crete. Fotini holds a Master’s degree in Environment and Development from the National Technical University of Athens and a Bachelor’s degree in Primary Education from the UOC. She has received training in music theory and classical violin, which now inform her approach to environmental education, where sound functions as the main medium of her interdisciplinary research.

​

Situated at the intersection of environmental science and sound art, her work develops new modes of communicating ecological thinking by challenging pseudo-bucolic visualizations of sustainability and introducing alternative forms of environmental aesthetics. Central to her practice is the concept of transformability in educational spaces - the capacity of sound objects and fragmented sonic materials to reshape perception and open new pathways for understanding environmental processes, transforming them into perceptual catalysts.

​

She constructs spaces of tension, ambiguity, and unfamiliarity, and integrates these sonic ecosystems into playful environments, educational activities, workshops, learning materials and sound installations, designed to engage diverse audiences with environmental questions not only on an intellectual level but also through emotional and sensorial experience.

Fotini currently lives in Vienna, Austria.
