COPOS 575 WHOSE BACK

COPOS 574 SO EASY

The NEON Greece contemporary art exhibition titled "Space of Togetherness" opens on September 9th at 7:00 PM at the National Theatre of Greece's Drama School in Athens

 

This exhibition tackles urgent issues facing Europe and the broader world, such as racism, social mobility, and migrant rights. It highlights how these issues are deeply ingrained in our everyday lives and explores ways in which we can foster a sense of belonging, co-existence, and empathy, across divisions of class, race, and gender. The exhibition brings together individual artistic practices and collective communities to uncover social histories and challenge entrenched stereotypes. Participating artists include Igshaan Adams, Taysir Batniji, Enri Canaj, Marianna Christofides, Mona Hatoum, Patricia Kaersenhout, Menelaos Karamaghiolis, Bouchra Khalili, Grada Kilomba, and many others who, through their creative expressions, invite reflection on these contemporary challenges.

Over the years, my artistic exploration has extended its branches into various forms. 1779

What began as a technical profession in architecture has metamorphosed into a lighter, more experimental approach, delving into curating exhibitions and directing scenes. My desire is to imprint an ephemeral mark, employing pure geometry and infusing vibrancy through colored bags, incorporating bodies from my series. In this artistic sojourn, I yearn to engage all senses. I want to savor local dishes, describing the nuanced sensations they evoke. I aspire to immerse myself in unfamiliar languages, learning and absorbing. The plan is to compose a series in collaboration with local artists, capturing the essence of the place that allows me to dream peacefully, fostering a sense of belonging in a remote locale. My proposal remains open-ended, a canvas awaiting the brushstrokes of context. Drawing inspiration from weather, colors, tones of voice, or even culinary experiences, I am ready to weave new connections into my existing series. With a portfolio exceeding two hundred contextual works, I bring a wealth of sensitivity to the table. What sets this moment apart is the convergence of my architectural background, studies in environmental psychology, and experience in curating seasonal exhibitions. This amalgamation positions me to influence the intersections of artistic fields that were once seemingly distant. Embracing autonomy, free from the spotlight and institutional constraints, I believe in the freedom of art to shape new ways of life. As the director of LAPIEZA, a relational artifact that I have guided for a decade, I advocate for the virtues of serial art and the accomplishment of short and medium-term objectives. My narrative is not academic but sensory, rooted in a profound sense of responsibility. Having steered an architecture studio and curated art, I bring extensive experience in management and production, adapting seamlessly to teams working on medium-term projects. Through my journey, I seek to illuminate and inspire, offering my experiences as a beacon for others navigating the diverse realms of art and humanity. I traverse diverse realms, seamlessly integrating my background as an architect and urban planner with my passion for curating exhibitions. The city, to me, is not just a backdrop but the central character in my performance piece, a dynamic entity that shapes and reflects my evolving artistic identity.
