Nicole Bairaktari studied painting and sculpture (with professor George Lappas) at Athens School of Fine Arts. In 2015, she was accepted at the Postgraduate Studies Program («Design-Space-Culture») of the National Technical University School of Architecture from which she graduated with honors. She is currently a PhD Candidate at the Department of Fine Arts of Athens School of Fine Arts. Her artistic practice as well as her theoretical research interests revolve around the creation of a cross-disciplinary field of artistic activity where the sculptural treatment of space intersects with video-installations mixing time-based digital media, creating paratheatrical scenes, staged and captured in film and presented/exhibited as large-scale videographic «tableaux vivants». In the latter, the «body» plays a central role being defined as a purely audiovisual phenomenon (an audible/visible appearance), a set of fragmented bodily postures, accentuated gestures and ambiguous flexions. Since 2008, she has participated in group exhibitions, workshops and conferences in Greece and abroad.
