Christiana Pila is a freelance illustrator, designer, artist and expressive art facilitator currently based in Thessaloniki. With eight years of experience in the graphic design industry and a background in education, she brings a strong foundation in visual communication to her practice.

She creates abstract mixed media explorations of internal emotional landscapes alongside figurative illustrations filled with playful, expressive shapes and characters. Her visual style is vibrant, deeply human, and emotion-driven.

Whether working with heavily layered oil pastels, collage, or digital media, she embraces a spontaneous and experimental approach, rooted in a deep love for the sensory process of creation and intuitive mark-making. 

This same philosophy of intuitive creation extends directly into her community work. She encourages individuals to experiment, play, and navigate their feelings, helping them rediscover the pure joy of making art.
