Eirene Efstathiou | ARTIST IN FOCUS

Eirene Efstathiou explores past events to revive them in a new context and question their hidden narratives. Her work extensively studies the way in which history is constantly translated, distorted, manipulated and rewritten. By juxtaposing official documents and personal memories, she creates a space on the margins of dominant discourse, which confronts erasures and structure violence of the past, but also people’s resilience in the face of ruin and loss.
