ANNA HOUSIADA

Anna Housiada was born in Athens. Her work is process-based and takes the form of texts, installations and participatory events aimed at triggering historical, critical and political dialogue. She likes to view communities as ecosystems and explore the dynamics of the relationships emerging within them. Using methodological tools rooted in interdependence and the collective production of knowledge, her practice tackles questions of identity and the sense of belonging in a context of cultural multiplicity. She studied at the Athens School of Fine Art (2017) and holds a postgraduate degree from Sint-Lucas University of Antwerp (2020) Advanced Masters of Research in Art within Social-Political Context. For the last two years, she has been working at the intersection between art, pedagogy and activism, driven by a desire to help strengthen communal relations, challenge hegemonic narratives and empower individual and communities to affirm the right over their own stories. She has been awarded the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Fellowship by ARTWORKS (2022).
