Marietta Mavrokordatou
(b. 1996, Nicosia, Cyprus)
Marietta Mavrokordatou is a visual artist based between London and Nicosia. Mavrokordatou’s practice explores the possibilities of image making. Employing autobiographical elements, she reimagines these from the spectator’s point of view, finding ways to relate anew. The presentation of Mavrokordatou’s narratives, leads back to the photographic medium itself, where she directly addresses its formal parameters. The photograph becomes at once a depiction of both itself and the artist. Usually working with a succession of photographs, the fiction is created in the rhythm found somewhere between the gestures, the gaps and the disruptions.
Mavrokordatou received her MFA in Fine Art at The Slade School of Fine Art, London, UK and her BA in Fine Art Photography from Camberwell College of Arts, London, UK in 2019.
Recent exhibitions include: Image as Trace, Brunette Coleman, GIRL, Brunette Coleman, London (2024), TOUR LIFE, Radio Athènes, Athens (2024), THE ALREADY PICTURES, Akwa Ibom, Athens (2024), Scenario, wieoftnoch, Karlsruhe (2024), GIRL, Thkio Ppalies, Nicosia (2023), Our Misfortune, Thousand Julys, Nicosia (2022), KM S/S 2024, Akwa Ibom, Athens, Ah, This! (curated by Helena Papadopoulos), Felix Gaudlitz, Vienna (2023).
