ABOUT THE ARTISTS

Yiannis Pappas is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice encompasses a range of mediums, including video work, photography, performance, and installation.

His visually captivating creations reflect his anthropological and phenomenological approach to his subjects. Throughout his oeuvre runs a deep fascination for the relation between space and the human body placed in natural and urban environments. Underscored by a critical interest in the concept of space and as a site of physical and symbolic enactment, his artistic work and research explore how different places are sustained collectively and individually throughout history.

UNIVERSAL RIGHTS I.E. NAKED STATELESSNESS

The core themes of this performance for the camera are the problem of moral principles and the relationship of the body to citizenship from the perspective of Stoic philosophy. Stoicism (a school of Hellenistic philosophy that flourished in Ancient Greece) focuses on human nature as part of universal nature and cosmic sympathy: the sense that the universe is an indivisible living organism, always in flux.
