ABout
Lily Hassioti is a new media artist that works along a variety of materials and processes, creating installations and interactive projects that engage audience in experiences. The use of natural materials points to the significance of the place and formation of relationships between people and their surroundings. She is interested in the way technology blends with nature to create an integrated landscape that we call natural. Her work lies on the fine line that divides the physical from the virtual reality, questioning our dual existence in these spaces.
