Marina Xenofontos. Play Life
Overview
Intro
Through her sculptures, found objects, writing and films, Marina Xenofontos interrogates the material manifestations of memory and history.
A sculptor who works in multiple modes, Marina Xenofontos addresses the material manifestations of ideology and knowledge, based on both her personal archives and the historical context of Cyprus, where she was born. She conceives her sculptures and readymades as tangible traces through which social and political transitions can be read. As she puts it, “I set about with an interest in materials, symbols, and elements that are not necessarily connected on a formal level but are rather entangled by ties in history and politics. These may be found objects that I reform or modify to glean new meaning or further concentrate the associations inherent in them”.Trained in sculpture at Bard College in New York state after studying at Goldsmiths, University of London, Xenofontos (born 1988 in Cyprus) lives and works between Athens and Limassol. She has had residencies at Lafayette Anticipations in Paris (2022) and the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam (2018-2019).
