Vassilis Pantelidis

GREECE

Vassilis Pantelidis (b.1984, Greece) is a visual artist and photographer currently based in Thessaloniki, Greece, where he is studying at the Film School of the Faculty of Fine Arts at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. His series “monologues” consists of theatrically staged self-portraits that convey feelings of isolation and confinement. His meticulously staged photographs always keep the subject partially visible, focusing on the body as an agent caught in entropy and decay. The artist becomes the protagonist of different scenarios where consumption is tainted with death, filth and blood, with each image full of tension and a seething desire for escape.
