Hi, I’m Maria Belegrini, a multidisciplinary artist based in Athens. I combine photography, digital art and design to tell visual stories that connect with people and cultures, and I love exploring how technology can amplify emotion and narrative. I’m currently pursuing an MSc in Strategic Product Design at the International Hellenic University. My work spans photography, exhibitions, and digital projects, and I bring experience from fast-paced operations at McDonald’s as well as freelance photography and museum internships to craft user-centered visuals and creative solutions.
