Yorgos Papafigos (GR)

Yorgos Papafigos (born in Larisa, Greece) graduated from the Thessaloniki School of Fine Arts faculty of painting and Royal College of Arts – Moving Image in London. His artistic practice is characterised by a variety of media and techniques. The central theme of his work is the conceptual approach to new technologies and the way they affect, deconstruct and transform human existence. One of the most important aspects of his work is how immateriality through images, video and computer-generated imagery affects our perception of the real world and the way we experience crisis.
