Froso Chatziaggelaki

Froso Hatziaggelaki was born in Piraeus and grew up in Perama. Her father was a painter, writer and dreamer. From him she inherited her talent for painting and her love for the arts and letters since he was in her DNE. She studied aesthetic cosmetology but did not follow the profession. She is the mother of four children and, in parallel with their upbringing, she never stopped painting and writing until dawn. In her early years, she learned the art of painting with her father as a teacher and later alongside renowned artists. In 2004, during her solo exhibition entitled Memories, she was awarded by the Piraeus Society of Letters and Arts, of which she is a member, as an exceptional talent. She served as secretary of the Technosphere Visual and Cultural Association. In 2004, the city where she grew up, Perama, honored her with the City Medal for her contribution to Art, as she actively participated for several years in the cultural activities of the Municipality as a member of the Cultural Organization. In 2008, the Women’s Union of Perama (E.G.E.), on the occasion of Women’s Day, honored her with a commendation and a medal. She has thirty participations in group exhibitions and eight solo exhibitions. Along with the color another love, writing also becomes another way of expression for her. Thus, in 2010, a Poetry Collection entitled “West of Hope” was published, while in the summer of 2013, her first novel entitled “Loves Smell Jasmine” was published. In 2005, she started the Art Workshop where she teaches painting lessons to children and adults.
