Artist
Andreas Angelidakis
Based in Athens, Angelidakis is classically trained as an architect, though refers to himself as “an architect who doesn’t build.” Today, his practice focuses on contemporary art, informed by his training in architecture. In the early 2000s, Angelidakis moved away from designing physical buildings and started to create and engage with 3D virtual architectural spaces. His practice examines the idea of ruin—of both ancient and contemporary societies. He views architecture as a site of social interaction, creating works that reflect on the sociology and history of modernism in architecture, urban culture and digital media.
