Momentum Art is a high-end artistic proposal focused on the human body. We specialize in bodypainting, special effects, and the artistic curation of identities. With precision in detail and absolute respect for aesthetics, we create works that transcend the ephemeral. The body becomes a medium of composition, storytelling, and high art.
Our Story
Momentum Art was born from the collaboration of Efi Tsimpi and Aris Veremis—two artists sharing a vision of form and transformation. Behind every project lies a broader team of specialized collaborators: makeup & SFX artists, photographers, prop builders, designers, and technicians. Together we compose images of high aesthetics, with precision, depth, and a narrative intention. Momentum Art is not just two creators. It is a creative force in motion.
