Evangelia Moschou (b. Greece, 2000) has a background in architecture and is currently studying at the Frank Mohr Institute in Groningen, the Netherlands. Her practice unfolds through a hands-on engagement with natural materials and the landscapes they emerge from. In working with materials, Evangelia reflects on the tension between the ephemeral and the eternal, inviting dialogue on themes of impermanence, memory, and our fragile attempts at control. Her practice thus becomes a way to cultivate humility in front of the resilience of nature and to rediscover ourselves, the others and the world around us through shared material histories.
At this moment, she is working with mastic, the natural resin from the “crying trees” of Chios, tracing its journey from harvest to artefacts. Mastic itself carries a dual nature. Fragile and fleeting in its raw form, yet capable of preservation and endurance. By leaning down to listen to the material, she seeks to uncover its deeper qualities, using making as a research method to explore the intersection of craft, care, reciprocity, and spirituality in collaboration with natural materials, local communities, and the landscapes that host them.
