Kostis Kontogeorgos is a visual artist and filmmaker based in Athens, Greece. He studied fine arts, cinema and social anthropology. Throughout his work, he reflects on contemporary perceptions of gender, while exploring ways of viewing the human body. Making primarily use of technological media —both digital and analogue— he seeks to highlight them as structural elements of his works, underlining the qualities that mediated forms of projection carry, as well as their ability to fundamentally shape the final result. The aim is to engage the viewer as both transmitter and receiver of images, in order to re-evaluate the correlations between the morphologically visible and the meanings implied through the prism of social conventions.
Selected group exhibitions and screenings include: Theorimata 3: Body, A Field of Competition (2023), organized by AICA Hellas, Athens Digital Arts Festival (2023), Queer Archive Festival #3 (2022), with the support of Onassis Stegi, Platforms Project (2021), and Athens Video Dance Project (2020).

In 2021, he founded Future Myth N.P.O., a community art project that merges art, technology, and social activism to promote digital education, youth empowerment, and media literacy.
