The artist
Anna Karaoglou – Sculptor
Contact : info@annakaraoglou.com
Anna’s love for art blossomed from an early age in Greece. She began her artistic journey exploring techniques of painting restoration. Her dedication led her to the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where she studied Fine Arts with a focus on oil painting.
In 1978, Anna decided to follow her other great passion — the “art of healing.” She became a physician and later a cancer researcher. Her professional career continued at the European Commission, where she worked for decades in public health and research policy.
Despite her professional achievements, Anna’s artistic spirit never faded. In 2017, she made a powerful return to art, choosing sculpture as her main form of expression. She trained at the “Le Chaudron” atelier under the guidance of Kaiti Morou, working with clay and patinas. This marked a profound Turning Point in her life — a new creative beginning.
In 2022, she took another important step in her artistic journey by learning the art of carving stone sculpture under the mentorship of Sofi. Her works are distinguished by their expressive energy, movement, and a deep emotional narrative conveyed through form and gesture.
Anna continues to create with passion, inspiring others through her journey from science to art.

My art studio
Visualising an artist’s studio makes the artwork more alive — seeing the artist at work makes it even more so. My studio is where ideas take shape, colours find their balance, and each piece begins its story.
