Dimitris Siokis (b. 1990) is a photographer and visual artist based in Antwerp. He holds an MFA in photography from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp (2022) and has studied architecture at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (2015). In his work, he seeks new methods of approaching the familiar. His interest lies in the way that everyday events are transformed into patterns of social structures as well as the mutual dependencies between the two. Balancing between the personal and the universal, between reality and its performance, his work explores the common elements of our individual lives. Central to his artistic thinking is the concept of uncertainty, as a means of approaching the different facets of truth. He uses Improvisation and collaborative processes as tools towards a new photographic approach. In 2022, he received the Roger de Conynck Award (Belgium). He has been awarded by ARTWORKS (2022) and is a Fellow of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Support Program (Greece).
