KATERINA CHATZIKOSTI
Visual arts
Katerina Chatzikosti (born in 1996) is a visual artist living between London and Athens. She graduated from the Athens School of Fine Arts (ASFA) in 2021 and is currently a postgraduate student at the Royal College of Art (RCA) in London. Using highly complex compositions whose stimuli she draws from trivial, everyday bodies of events, her work is centered on the construction of clusters —allegorical, confused worlds, which, in their immediacy, generate the prospect of associative malleability, while a certain contrived logic resonates through their architecture. She is interested in the written word as an imprint pregnant with visual implications, architectural patterns and threads of thought which lose their way, become dissolved and eventually subverted. She explores textures of materiality and sound, temperature and light and uses the written word as a starting point to compose a sense of time and space expanding on many layers. She has been awarded the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Fellowship by ARTWORKS (2022).
