introduction
about me
Kassandra is a London-based award-winning multidisciplinary artist and multi-passionate person who through a journey of self-discovery found inspiration to channel the experience, texture, and voice of herself and her community into her craft.
For Kassandra, her work has become more than creating bold and unapologetic pieces; her story lives in what she creates. In 2020 her lightbulb moment came as she started to express her own voice in her work and using it to support other people in different mediums .
As a cultural and creative consultant working across visual arts, film, liveness and audio, Kassandra has curated an impressive portfolio working in collaboration with organisations
Kassandra has won The Jewel Award (2021), Art Council England Develop Creative Practice grant award (2021) , Goldsmiths’ Craft & Design Council 2021 Gold Award Winner.
Kassandra’s film - Gemstones: Lessons in Unconditional Love was officially selected for the London Independent Film Festival (2022)
Kassandra has been a visiting lecturer of Birmingham City University and Royal College of the Arts.

The last few years have had a huge impact on the world. We are living in an era of unprecedented change, where we are plagued with uncertainty, chaos and disconnection.
One of the biggest strengths for survival as humans is how we connect with others. Also how we need to lead in the time of change.
I can creatively work with any audience, culture and organisation.
My speciality areas are:
- Women empowerment
- Adornment and beauty
- Creativity and collaboration
- Entrepreneurship
- Corporate Social Responsibility
- Diversity and Inclusion
We can innovate through the power of storytelling, creativity and authentic connection.
I cannot wait to make creative changes with you!
