EMST presents (in the Project Room 2-3rd floor) the solo exhibition of Erika Skourtis "Profiles of you".

In her highly autobiographical work, Skurti uses humor, irony, parody and self-exposure to realize themes of emotion, intimacy, work, doubt and self-improvement, but also the role of the artist in relation to technology. Her work is an open process of self-narrative, where personal biography meets the collective, the personal is juxtaposed with the political and reality with fiction. Her visual practice starts from a process of self-observation and the systematic recording of daily life through the creation of printed and audio-visual diaries. Making systematic use of social media and mobile phone applications, Skurti reworks her personal files and creates textual works on fabric or paper, as well as performance, video and collages characterized by a lo-fi, raw and broken aesthetic. . Viewers become voyeuristic witnesses to her personal life and readers of phrases, words and concepts with open and multiple meanings.

The exhibition at EMST is her first solo exhibition in Greece and her first major museum exhibition.

Erika Skourti was born in Athens – she lives and works between Athens and London.
