Eva PapamargaritiGR/UK
Moving between London and Athens, artist Eva Papamargariti’s practice focuses on time-based media, printed material, and sculptural installations that explore the relationship between digital space and material reality. She is interested in the creation of 2D/3D rendered spaces and scenarios that provoke narratives based on the daily situations at the border between digital and physical environments, blurring the boundaries between these “ecosystems.” Her work delves into issues and themes related to simultaneity, the merging and dissolving of our surroundings with the virtual, the spread of synthetic images that define and fragment identities and experiences, and the symbiotic procedures and entanglements between humans, nature and technology.
She has displayed her work in institutions, museums and festivals, such as the New Museum (New York), Whitney Museum (New York), Tate Britain (London), MAAT Museum (Lisbon), Museum of the Moving Image (New York), MoMA PS1 (New York), Museum of Contemporary Art (Montréal), Athens Biennale (Athens), Thessaloniki Biennale (Thessaloniki), and transmediale (Berlin). Over the last several years, she has collaborated with and created work for various brands, such as Nike, KENZO, Boiler Room, MTV, Diesel, and River Island, among others.

Transformative Encounters is a short visual narration including 3d animated material,video recordings and poetic elements that refers to a multitude of bodies and their consecutive encounters with an unfamiliar organism that take place as they intersect, feed, touch, alter, discard, contain, compartmentalize and acknowledge each other's corporeality. A xeno-entity and its abstract anatomical characteristics become the central figure of the narration as it attempts to observe, interlink and communicate with others.
