Fenia is a UK-resident, Greek-born cross-disciplinary artist (performance (art), dance, video, photography) holding an MFA in Choreographing Live Art from the University of Lincoln (UK), a BA Honours in Dance from the National Dance Academy of Rome (Italy) and a BA in Italian Language and Literature from the Aristotelion University of Thessaloniki (Greece).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the course of the last decade, video making and photography became a dominant and persistent components of her artistic practice. All of her inspiration comes from the daily life, encounters, observation of interpersonal relationships, abandoned places, gender performativity, feminist approaches on female subjectivity and identity. Pivotal topics of recent projects include the body as gathering place of emotions and site of transformation, personal and collective memory, fragmentation, construction and deconstruction of female identity, performativity of documentation and different uses of personal archives. In search of an holistic way to express hervision, and based on a rhizomatic approach of making art, She seeks collaborating with artists from different fields and different cultural backgrounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her practice-led research \u00abVulvography: photography and performance from a female point of view\u00bb is focused on the gendered nature of the performative role of the photographer whilst exploring ways to confront implied phallocentrism within the practice of photographing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the past few years, as (dance) performer, producer and visual practitioner, her works and the work of close-collaborators have been shown at a wide array of festivals and art platforms, encompassing the fields of dance, experimental performance, live-art and video-art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since 2016 She is an artist in residency at x-church (Gainsborough, UK) within a group of 10 artists, exploring the idea of \u00abresidency\u00bb in an old ex church on Ashcroft Road, Gainsborough (UK), formerly St. John the Divine Parish Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since 2019, She teachs at the Master of Theater Practices at ArtEZ University in Arnhem (Netherlands).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
