Labrini Rizaki is a visual artist and researcher based in Athens, Greece.
She holds a BA in Fine Arts from the Athens School of Fine Arts, a BA in Graphic Design from Vakalo Art & Design College, and has completed a seminar degree in art therapy and consultation at KESYTHE.Her practice is research-driven and multidisciplinary, moving across sculpture, ceramic form, spatial design, video and material experimentation. Rizaki’s work examines post-capitalist structures and the hybrid social models they produce, focusing on how technology, consumerism and systems of control fragment the human body and redefine collective experience. Through long-term research, she traces transitions between physical and virtual space, exploring the inbetween territories that emerge within contemporary life. In recent years, her practice has increasingly engaged with materiality, space and ritual, using clay and other media as tools to investigate presence, suspension and embodied experience within architectural and public environments. Rather than treating materials as fixed disciplines, she approaches them as carriers of memory and spatial agency.Rizaki aims to create spaces of pause and reorientation, where individuals can reconnect with thought, presence and collective awareness. She is cofounder of Lama Lab, an independent studio dedicated to artistic research and ceramic experimentation. She has participated in residencies and research programs such as the “Post Social Media Club” residency organized by STPLN, Volumes, Nova Iskra, ATÖLYE and Bios, and has been a research fellow at the Center for Social Vision in Sofia, Bulgaria. Her work has been presented internationally at institutions and platforms including the Athens Digital Arts Festival, Millennium Film Workshop (New York), the Biennale of Western Balkans, Southern Sweden Design Days, the Paxos Biennale, CICA Museum, and publications such as Thraka magazine. She currently lives and works in Athens. |
