Georgia Matsamaki has studied Graphic Design and Photography and is active in the field of Applied and Visual Arts. Alongside her professional practice, she consistently develops personal artistic work, exploring the possibilities of photography in combination with graphic design and collage.
Her work focuses on the observation of everyday life and the revelation of the unseen that exists within the familiar. Through the isolation of details, the shifting of attention toward the seemingly insignificant, and the reinterpretation of common objects, she seeks to redefine our relationship with what we tend to take for granted. The emphasis on the minimal, the unnoticed, and the “nothing” as a field of meaning constitutes a central axis of her visual research.
Her work has been presented in international exhibitions in physical exhibition spaces, including the MOMus-Thessaloniki Museum of Photography, Kommunale Galerie (Berlin), Ephemere Photo Space (Tokyo), Museo del Design (Mexico), Bologna Art Festival, and the Sigmund Freud Dreams Museum (Saint Petersburg), as well as on online platforms dedicated to contemporary photography, such as Artdoc Magazine, Float Magazine, Humble Arts Foundation, Vice Magazine USA, PEP Photographic Exploration Project, LensCulture, Musée Magazine, Feature Shoot, Broad Magazine, Luminous Eye Athens and Lenscratch, among others.
Her work has also been included in publications and catalogues by the MOMus-Thessaloniki Museum of Photography, PEP Photographic Exploration Project, Float Magazine, Ephemere Photo Space, Broad Magazine and China Life Magazine.
She lives and works in Chania, Greece.
