I Spy (2023)
Video Art – Animation 1080×1080
VIDEO ART
A hidden projection reveals an infinite, ever-shifting non-binary form, embodying fluidity and transcendence. Visible only through a small hole on a table, it invites viewers into an intimate, almost secretive encounter. The work challenges perceptions of identity, boundaries, and permanence, merging the tangible with the ephemeral. This interplay of light, space, and form creates a meditative experience, urging reflection on the nature of existence. The tiny aperture becomes a portal to an endless, boundless reality.

Baronettes (2013)
Experimental YouTube Series / Drag Queens
The Baronettes are the first Greek web series. Τhe series follows Beatrice and Savanna Papadopoulos, true Baronettes of the bourgeois class, in their absurdly extravagant world. Over three seasons of short, outrageous episodes, the characters feel familiar—we’ve seen them somewhere, we know them. The Baronettes blend video art with a slightly linear narrative. These personas are trapped in a magical image, allowing them to do anything. They are Drag Queens, crafting an exaggerated, artificial persona for display. Beatrice and Savanna are inseparable from their salon, where every detail—from the wallpaper to their clothes, their chairs, and even their phone—forms the bubble they live in. The series explores their attempts to escape this meticulously constructed world.
Working Title (2019)
Video Art, 1920×2160
This video art installation features two opposing projections: one depicting the exposed, raw reality of a polykatoikia (apartment building) in Kypseli, and the other showing the Greek Parliament. Each projection is composed of multiple small videos that together form a larger, unified image. The contrast between the two screens—urban decay versus political power—creates a striking dialogue, highlighting the tension between everyday life and institutional authority. The theoretical framework draws on concepts of urban sociology and political critique, emphasizing how the microcosm of the polykatoikia reflects the macrocosm of governance, and vice versa. The installation invites viewers to question the relationship between the personal and the political, and how these interconnected narratives define contemporary Greek identity.

Masterpiece (2020)
Video Art, 4:3
This video art piece is designed for display on an old-style television monitor, creating a nostalgic yet jarring visual experience. Over the course of one minute, it bombards the viewer with hundreds of chaotic, heteroclite images sourced from the depths of the internet. The rapid-fire montage reflects the overwhelming flood of information in the digital age, challenging the viewer’s perception and ability to process fragmented content. The use of an outdated monitor contrasts with the hyper-modern chaos, symbolizing the tension between past and present. Ultimately, the work critiques the relentless pace and disorienting nature of online consumption, leaving the audience both mesmerized and unsettled.
