BIOGRAPHIE

Sotiris Tsiganos (1992, Αthens, GR) and Ionian Bisai (1992, Saranda, AL) are visual artists and filmmakers based in Αthens. They operate as an artistic duo in research-based projects, focusing on the critical reading of underexposed stories and how these can twist through new contexts. Laboring in the age of augmented realities, the artist duo weaves social engagement and critique through participatory strategies and performative sequences, resulting in hybrid film productions —remixing documentary, fiction and archive. Latent Community, founded by Tsiganos and Bisai, is an ongoing artistic investigation intertwining fieldwork and moving image in order to respond to contemporary judicial, social and ecological cases, creating conceptual and emotional experiences for imagining a more equal and sustainable future. Their work has been presented in several international exhibitions and festivals (Αthens Biennale, documenta14–Public Programs, Thessaloniki Documentary Festival, PCAI–Polyeco Contemporary Art Initiative, Contemporary Art Museum of Crete, Recontemporary–Turin) and has been awarded by LOOP Barcelona and Sharjah Art Foundation.
