CHRISTINA PAPAKYRIAKOY

Within the body of my work, there exists that which is deeply personal, yet simultaneously universal. I try to focus on states of existence; birth , creation and exploration of emotional themes;
happiness and sadness, anxiety and euphoria, fear but also courage, anger, isolation,  and wonder.
Basically, delving into what makes us uniquely human.
My artistic practice is based on a cyclical method whereby I pull elements from one practical application to another. From drawing to installation and from installation to performance and vice versa. It is a quest, a play of connecting the dots. That is, the points and signs that emerge through my artistic process. By subtracting and adding, I seek the essence found in the whole, a necessity that is to say, a necessity for expression. An endless creative game between variety of techniques, emotions and the playfulness action of the “here” and “now”.
