In 2017 Konstantsa continued to study at Goldsmiths University of London where she graduated the year after with a Masters degree in Design: Expanded Practice. Her course there included diverse types of design, curatorial work and social art projects and during her summer semester, she worked as a gallerist in Barcelona, Spain.
