Nia Hefe Filiogianni was born in 1990 in Athens, Greece and currently lives in London. She is a visual artist and founder of Cream Athens, a platform that celebrates and supports emerging art from all over the world. Graduated with a distinction from DEREE, The American College of Greece with a BA (Hons) in Visual Arts (Minor Art History) in 2014, she later completed her MA studies at Central Saint Martins (UAL) in Communication Design with a scholarship.

Nia's work lies between mixed media painting, illustration and sculpture. Her body of work is heavily based in semiotics, inspired by Ancient Greek culture, politics and current events. Her primary materials are textiles, concrete and wax and her colour palette is partially limited to pastels.

Nia's work has been widely exhibited primarily in Los Angeles (US), Athens (GR) and London (UK) at the Lethaby Gallery, M-Art Gallery, Bios Romantso, The British museum and The Crypt, Bloomsbury. She has been featured in Vogue GR, Bricks Magazine, CNN GR and more.
