“All our life is dedicated to art.”
Affectionately known on campus as “the KonKons,” Konst and Konstantina have been brightening SMS since their arrival. They teach the largest variety of classes, focusing on different types of art and expression, including: Art History, AP and Studio Art, Drawing, Painting, Illustration, Fashion Design, Ceramics, Mosaics, Photography, and Mixed Media. In addition, the KonKons teach community classes and locally display their own work. Many of their pieces, generally using nature as their muse, can be seen around campus. The KonKons previous work has been displayed in many exhibitions in Austria and Malta and can be seen on The KonKons website.
They live on campus.
