Katerina Katsifaraki’s solo exhibition Dwelling is presented at the Mentis-Antonopoulos (“NEMA”) Passementerie of the Benaki Museum curated by Christoforos Marinos. Katsifaraki’s art revolves around the concept of perpetual motion. Ephemeral dwelling, roots and uprooting, the ceaseless moving from place to place, taking notice of the ostensibly unimportant and giving prominence to the fleeting are at the epicentre of her work.

We often say that life “unravels” before our eyes. That memory is a “thread” with the potential to direct its course. That joy and peace must first “take root” in order to survive. The photographs, videos, installations and objects of Katsifaraki, exhibited discreetly around the old textile factory, stand to confirm the metaphorical power of the thread and its relationship to nature. Through this cohabitation of images, threads, landscapes and machinery, nomadic thought lays claim to our attention once again.

Katerina Katsifaraki’s solo exhibition Dwelling is supported by NEON Organization.
