About

Making room for the unexpected.

Nadia Dermatopoulou is an artist, filmmaker and producer working across immersive installations, moving image and film.

Her practice begins with curiosity: how we notice a place, how an image changes as we move around it, and what happens when we become part of the work. Her installations invite visitors to enter, inhabit or complete an experience through their own attention and presence.

In film, she moves between visual experimentation, repetition, humour and the absurd. Across these forms, she returns to thresholds, transformation, contemplation and discovery.

Alongside her artistic practice, she works in audiovisual heritage, film production and international collaboration.
