Artist Bio

Alexandros Pissourios (b.1982, Limassol, Cyprus) lives and works in London and Cyprus. Pissourios makes films and takes photographs. With a camera and its isolations and expansions, he approaches and intervenes in somewhat transient routines and familiar subjects, replacing the natural space with alternative optics and moods, departing from the ones open to the naked eye.

Selected screenings and exhibitions include: Seeing through melancholia, Nicosia (2023) Ineffable Islands, Space52, Athens (2021); 18th and 15th Lemesos International Documentary Festival (2023/2020); Terra Mediterranea: In Action, Leipzig, Germany (2017); 27th International Ankara Film Festival, Turkey (2016); LUX/ICA Biennial of Moving Image, ICA, London (2012); On site, Barbican Exhibition Halls, London (2011); 25th London Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, British Film Institute, London (2011).
