On Wednesday, June 11, 2025, the SNF Interns had the opportunity to visit ARTWORKS and get to know the organization up close. Marily Konstantinopoulou, co-founder and director of ARTWORKS, introduced the organization’s vision, core values, and activities, while Panos Giannikopoulos, curator and program coordinator at ARTWORKS, guided the participants through the exhibition “The air is imperceptible, and yet it moves”, which he has curated. Through the tour, the interns explored the featured works and engaged in conversation with the curator about the exhibition’s themes, the selection process, and the diverse artistic approaches represented.
The day concluded with a studio visit to ARTWORKS Fellow Eleni Tomadaki. In her workspace, the artist presented her practice, the materials she works with, and the concepts she investigates through her art. The open and thoughtful discussion that followed highlighted the value of direct engagement with the artist and offered the participants a deeper understanding of contemporary artistic production.
