Katrina is a Greek-Australian artist based in London.
Her work focuses on the entanglement of human and nonhuman life through the lenses of consumption, labour and image-making. She studies how cycles of nourishment, decay and reproduction manifest in the body and in the photographic medium itself.
Katrina questions how the representation of photography can shift in material transformation - by playing with surfaces and chemistry of photographic materials, she investigates what images can mean simultaneously as matter and as document. Found material is often her starting point, and can range from objects, x-rays, 16mm film, specimens, food and packaging, to discarded photographic materials sourced online or from commercial photographic labs in London.
Fixated on acts of feeding, Katrina draws connections between the consumption of food and images - their digestion, representation, source & distribution, and entwining as daily process. Working cross-disciplinarily, she often collaborates with researchers and professionals in genetics, design, food production and agriculture.
Along with her practice-based research, Katrina is a Project Manager of the London Alternative Photography Collective, and Co-Founder of the Project space Equivalentbehaviour in North London.
