The Unknown Artist is a contemporary painter exploring the transformation of Byzantine iconography in the age of digital technology, war, and mass image culture. Her anonymity is a deliberate gesture — a protest against the hyper-visibility of the Instagram era, where identity often overshadows meaning. Like medieval icon painters who remained unnamed, she refuses authorship as both protection and statement, especially in the face of censorship around war.

Her solo exhibitions include Modern Pietas and Accidental Light, and her works have appeared at guerrilla show during the Venice Biennale opening in 2022
