An ever ending work in progress // Contact for collaborations and enquiries
︎ Christina Anagnostou is a multi-media artist based in London. Born (1999) and raised in Athens, Greece the artist has had training in academic painting and is a graduate fine art student in Print & Time-Based Media at Wimbledon College of Arts and a member of the CIRCA x Dazed Class of 2021.
Growing up in the internet age, the artist empties her mind on the table and lets the audience piece it back together.The use of rich visuals and oversaturated colours are fundamental to the aesthetic of the work, applied on sets, characters, costumes and creative direction. Her art practice revolves around the playfulness of virtual identity, creating personas and cyborgs. These are translated through surrealism and post humanism, collaging different elements and bringing them in today’s world.
Stretching from painting to moving image and 3D animation (video, installation), the intention behind each artwork is to construct/ build an immersive experience and they have been reviewed as humourous/satirical but also sometimes contemplative.
Digested popular culture has been a prominent source of inspiration, from memes to pop culture icons and cult classic films, the artist pastiches them all in one form, as seen in her latest film, ‘I looked at Myself and Myself stared back at me’.
While studying at UAL ,the artist has been in a group show with Cream Athens: Whipped exhibition at the Coningsby Gallery, will soon be part of a group virtual exhibition for the final project of Kristina Kostenko at London College of Fashion and did a co-residency at the Lalaounis Jewellery Museum in Athens.︎
