Konstantinos Kyriakopoulos
Born in Athens, Konstantinos Kyriakopoulos lives and works in Bobigny (FR).
His practice revolves around a single device, adapted to suit different contexts and purposes: the bed. His sculptures, which take collaboration as their methodology, are created with other artists (Flora Bouteille, Anaïs-Tohé Commaret, Lucille Léger, Cyriaque Blanchet, Paola Quilici, Raphaël Sitbon, etc.), in order to open up spaces for creation and collective imagination. The bed is not a theme: it's a format on which ideas, shapes and bodies rest. It is also a space that can be activated in a variety of ways that disarm the logic of productivity: a place to play or to dream, to sleep or to go on strike.
Konstantinos Kyriakopoulos' work has been presented at the Fondation Pernod Ricard in 2023 (FR), Bétonsalon in 2023 (FR), L'Aconservatoire and Monopôle in 2022 (FR), Domestic Cult at Scale, Iveco Nu and Bétonsalon in 2021 (FR) and Exo Exo and La Chaufferie in 2020 (FR) among others.
