Evgenia Faliaridou is a graduate of the Department of Fine and Applied Arts at the School of Fine Arts of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh), with Professor Dimitris Zouroudis, and the Master’s Program “Audiovisual Arts in the Digital Age” at the Department of Audio and Visual Arts of the Ionian University. From 2020 to June 2023, she taught Art and Drawing at the Mantoulides Schools. Additionally, she has taught as Scientific Personnel the course “Painting with Combined Media” and “Painting 6” in the 1st Painting Studio of the Department of Fine and Applied Arts at AUTh for the years 2021, 2022 and 2023, while a new collaboration with the department is currently underway for the course “Painting 8” in 2024.
She has presented her artistic work in 3 solo and 37 group exhibitions and festivals in Greece and abroad. Notable participations include: “Point of Intersection, Place II | Symbols of Struggle 1821-2021” at the Numismatic Museum of Athens, the 15th Audio-visual Arts Festival 2022 at the Ionian University, the Festival für Design & Nachhaltigkeit 2020, MAKK – Museum für Ange- wandte Kunst Köln, Platforms Project at the ASFA Athens, the RGB Balkans Art Festival 2019 at the Culture Palace in Iasi, and the 7th Thessaloniki Biennale of Contemporary Art at MOMus, in the execution of Dimitris Zouroudis’ work. Her works have been published in catalogues, magazines, and online media.
In her work, the concept of the transition of human presence within the space and time of an environment, the coexistence of heterogeneous elements through lived experience and observation, are involved under the prism of an abstract approach and redistribution of the painting form. From the act of transfer as a process of transformation, within the new data of the present, a new condition seems to be created, marking new modes of operation and communication. By mapping the new landscape, a new visual challenge is born, prompting the viewer to contemplate interpretations through their own projections.
A large part of her artistic work includes paintings on canvas and digital media, while also using moving image and video installations as a working medium.
She lives and works in Thessaloniki.
