Kyriaki Goni’s multimedia installations critically and poetically examine the political, affective and environmental aspects of Big Tech. Her practice involves using various media including drawing, video, digital prints, textiles, websites, coding, poetry and sound. Goni explores the impacts of extractive practices on landscapes, human and non-human bodies, investigates other forms of intelligence (such as machines and plants), and creates alternative networks and infrastructures. Her installations seek to connect the local with the (inter)planetary, the speculative with the scientific, and to contemplate possible futures and new worlds. Goni’s work has been shown in solo exhibitions in Athens (Greece), Leeds (UK), Copenhagen (Denmark) and Berlin (Germany), as well as in group exhibitions, including at Kunsthall Trondheim (Norway), Warsaw Biennale (Poland) and Ars Electronica (Linz, Austria).
