Maria Paneta is an artist who explores digital media, nature, and societal change through interactive installations and prosthetic wearables. She investigates a world beyond the unsustainable impacts of human activity, proposing new systems of coexistence and stewardship.

She holds an MArch in Interaction Design from the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, and a Diploma in Architecture from the University of Patras. Paneta’s work has been exhibited internationally, with shows in Athens, London, Utrecht, and Texas, and she participated in Onassis ONX 2024 and the 150th anniversary of Harper's Bazaar at MoCA Shanghai in 2017. She has collaborated with leading cultural and academic institutions, including the Bartlett School of Architecture, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, and the Diriyah Biennale, where she taught interaction design. Paneta is currently based in Athens.
