I had an interesting chat with Kate Neave about my practice and recent projects, now featured on OpenLab as part of ‘Unearthed: Eco-visionaries’. Read full feature here
“Ioanna Sakellaraki’s dark and evocative imagery leaves her audience stranded in an unsettling liminal space. There’s a deep conceptual thought process behind these photographs that consider how we collectively respond to disaster and loss. Weaving together layers of memory and myth, Sakellaraki plays on the power of the photographic image to create a discontinuity between time and place. Nature plays an important part in her practice as her photography plays out across landscapes manipulated to evoke strong visceral reactions. Learn more about her emotive, ambiguous work in this interview with Sakellaraki as we chat about the Island of the Apocalypse and the influence of Greek tragedy.”
