Marios Stamatis
born in Greece
While maintaining a solo practice spanning sculpture, performance, video, sound and text, he has established a long term collaborative practice with artist Lea Collet.
His practice examines the human–nature–technology triptych relationships as well as the technological limitations of embodiment and the value of emotion in a digital
capitalist society. Through a de-centred physical and neural fluidity in the form of expression, his work simulates and explores the increasing influence of new forms
of intelligence on the human psyche, intellect and ultimately the body, and how by embracing the interconnections between organic and non-organic life, affect becomes
a vehicle for rethinking these transformative co-existences.
