Marina Papadaki, born in 1991, is an Athens-based artist. She has a BA in Fine Arts from the School of Visual and Applied Arts of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (2015) and an MFA in Fine Arts from Luca School of Arts in Brussels (2018). She is the founder of the Hydroexpress Project in Kaminia, Piraeus, and the editor of Hydroexpress Project Publication. She was awarded the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) Artist Fellowship by ARTWORKS. She has participated in exhibitions and artist residences in Greece, Cyprus, Ukraine, Poland, Belgium, Serbia, and Romania. Something that is strongly reflected in the body of her work is the conceptual visualisation of social mechanisms and inequalities. With references to the socio-political system, through her work, she seeks to awaken critical thinking and to remind us of the position we take as individuals — with everything that it might entail. Key Words such as social space, institutionalization, (social) boundaries, human production – reproduction, otherness, identity, discrimination, exclusion etc. are at the epicentre, and are repeated in her art research and practice by using different types of mediums, such as painting, installations, videos, digital prints, et al. As an extension of her research, she worked at the Psychiatric Hospital of Attica. Her work has also been presented at conferences about “socially engaged art” at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and the House of Representatives of Cyprus.
