Applying the use of precious metals and stones on her art education fascinated her, so she pushed on, studying and obtaining a degree from the State School of Silversmithing of Athens and a diploma in Gemology. All this has now found its rightful place of expression in AMAYA: a small workshop-studio that Amalia Petsali runs in collaboration with Yannis Papatheodorou, fellow artist and creator of jewellery.

Their goal, they say, is to make "wearable little sculptures". They live and work in Athens. |
