DIMITRA VIVELI

Dimitra Viveli is a practising artist and linguist, who embraces art and language as platforms for creating functional meaning on various levels, and assuming responsibility for one's personal and social experience.

Dimitra studied at the School of Philosophy, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, from which she graduated with a degree in English Language and Literature. She also studied the italian language and literarture, following the programme of the University of Perugia (Università per Stranieri). She obtained her master's degree in Art and Design (Design for Interactive Media) from the Lansdown Centre for Electronic Arts, Middlesex University of London, and then pursued studies in fashion design in Athens and London (AKTO Art and Design College, Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design), as well as in visual and performing arts, at independent art studios.

Dimitra has worked in the areas of education, media, business, and art in Athens and London. In 2010, she founded the philosophy and art lab to dodeka and in 2018 she founded On Repetition, an open treatise in action. In her artistic capacity, she has exhibited in Athens, Syros (Greece), London (UK), NYC ( USA), Buenos Aires (Argentina), and Basel ( Switzerland). As a practising artist, she daily immerses herself in art, seeking to explore the systematicity of existence as an active continuum, in which various densities, ranging from soul to matter, seize the opportunity to interact and produce common results, which are shaped by an uninterrupted array of choices. It is in this process that she finds and develops new ways of increasing and enhancing the possibilties that experienced reality can accommodate.
