Iasonas Kampanis

This exhibition brings together two visionary practitioners whose work excavates the transformative power of ritual, mask, and the sacred within their respective Mediterranean and Mesoamerican cultural landscapes. Iasonas Kampanis' work is accompanied by a text written for the exhibition by International curator Marina Fokidis with Jimènez- Flores' presentation featuring a text by Ulises Matamoros Ascensión. Iasonas Kampanis grounds his practice in Mediterranean animistic traditions, investigating humanity's lost kinship with the natural world.
