Born in Germany, in 1960, Thea grew up and went to school in Wehr, Germany.
She was involved in all kinds of handy crafts and went for art classes on and off,
time permitting, all her life. Thea studied Hotel and Catering in Bavaria and worked in the profession for ten
years in Germany, England and Cyprus. She came to life in Cyprus in 1980., where she started to work in a well known
stained glass studio in Limassol in 1987. She worked there for four years and then
opened her own studio in order to fulfill her dream to develop her own style. She
feels deep passion towards art glass and likes to explore new dimensions. Thea took part in group exhibitions all over Cyprus and Germany and also is known
to the public from the Arts & Crafts Markets in Cyprus. She has also had two sole
exhibitions in Limassol in 1995 and 1996. Her work is also in private collections
in Cyprus, Europe, USA, Australia, New
Zealand and Skandinavia. Some of her public work can be seen in Nicosia and Limassol in Hotels and
Restaurants. Thea works in copper foil technique, often combined with "hot glass", because she
feels that it brings endless possibilities for her creations.
