DIDA PAPALEXANDROU

Dida Papalexandrou is a visual artist and teacher. She graduated from the Athens School of Fine Arts in 2003, where she studied painting. She has also studied Psychology at the University of Crete, Greece, and received an MSc in Ergonomics from UCL (London University).
From the beginning of her career, she experimented with ideas that included technology in the artistic procedure. As a result, she developed a net-based conceptual project named “ARTPLANKTOS, the Traveling Net-Art,” presented in 2009 at the 12th International Annual Conference of Generative Art held in Milan-Italy.
Today Artplanktos is a part of the “CELEBRATE” JAVA MUSEUM collection.
Her constant interest in psychological processes of behavior led her to develop projects focusing on the female body as a canvas where assumptions of beauty and identity are projected. She creates images that explore the naked female form going
beyond the limits of the physical entity. She treats the body as a symbolic construction and tries to investigate the different forms in which it has been handed down to us over time.
Her work engages painting, drawing, mixed media, and generative art. She also has a vivid interest in street art.
Today, she works at the Athens School of Fine Art as a Seconded Teaching Assistant.
