Myria Christophini Njenga

experimental animator, visual artist and researcher
Hello! Welcome to my website. Here are a few words about me and my work:

​I am a Scottish and Cypriot experimental animator, visual artist and researcher. As an interdisciplinary artist that embraces many media, I consider process, artistic communication and my message as my ultimate goal, and am flexible in its achievement. As a Fine Art graduate of the Bauhaus, I had extensive artistic education and this interdisciplinary preference is clear in my practice. My work is often a practice-led investigation into social change, creative communication avenues among people in conflict, and it also has a strong participatory art character. Moreover, I enjoy creating pieces with autobiographical elements.

I was lucky to have the opportunity to study in different countries and to gain a practice-led PhD in the creative arts, animation and peace-building from the Glasgow School of Art. I work as a Fine Artist, and I am also currently employed as a teaching fellow at The University of Edinburgh.

I am living in sunny (not!) Glasgow, and despite the repeated effort I cannot speak with a Scottish accent.
