With my lens, I explore the boundaries between reality and illusion and create intimate, obscure, unsettling universes. Interacting with surrounding elements, nature, the built environment, and the human body, experimenting with scanograms and mixed media techniques, I translate memories, experiences, and my own emotions into visual stories.
Inspired by a place, I return to inhabit it further, initially through photography and later through video or sound recording, which I distort to create new sounds. I directly introduce human presence through self portraits and portraits of persons close to me.
I seek beauty in imperfection, uncharacteristic views, unseen details. Ideally, through exhibitions or artist books, I aim to invite others into my world, asking them to feel and respond in a personal introspective way to the unspoken narrative or autobiographical context of my work.
Bio
Contact
I am a lens-based media artist with a background in Software Engineering and Project Management (MBA). Growing up in Greece and Germany in an interdisciplinary and multilingual environment influenced my Science and Art journey and my passion for languages and travelling. I speak English, French, German, and Greek.
Since 2016, I have presented my work in exhibitions in Switzerland, Italy, and the USA. Notably, in 2023, I exhibited my multimedia project Wunderkammer at the Liquida Photofestival in Torino; in New York, I presented 2022 my video work at the ICP Museum. In May 2023, GUP Magazine selected me as a FRESH EYES International Talent for their Conceptual & Fashion publication. While graduating in 2022 from the Creative Practices Program at the International Center of Photography (ICP), I curated for the ICP Library a Photo Book Display exhibition entitled Out of this World.
Based in New York and Geneva, I maintain an art practice in film and digital photography, video, and sound. As part of my research on materials and post-production techniques, I specialise in creating Fine Art Prints and working in Post-Production.
