Konstantina Krikzoni (b. 1987, Chalkidiki, Greece) lives and works in London. She holds an MA in Painting from the Royal College of Art, London.
Her painting practice blends ancient storytelling with contemporary sensibilities, centring on elusive female figures that evoke mythological and archetypal references such as nymphs and sirens. These figures are grounded in a more primal, embodied logic, engaging the archetype of the "Wise Mother" and broader ideas around feminine knowledge, nature, and memory. Her work consistently returns to the female body as a site where figuration and abstraction intersect, where forms become fractured and fluid, embedded within layered surfaces of paint. The line in her work operates not as boundary but as disruption—dissolving, reappearing, and shaping a field of emotional and poetic tension.
Krikzoni has exhibited internationally in solo and group exhibitions, including Warriors at Jarvis Art, New York (2026, solo); Armatura at L'Appartement Gallery, Geneva (2026, solo); Eruption at Jarvis Art, New York (2026, group), curated by Max Werner; Nymphidia at Victoria Miro Projects (2024, solo); and Continuum at Frieze No.9 Cork Street, London (2023, two-person), as well as Chamber at Newchild Gallery, Antwerp (2023, solo). She has undertaken residencies at Palazzo Monti, Brescia (2023), culminating in Shipping Address, and at the Philippe and Marion Lambert Residency in Crete (2024). Her distinctions include the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Fellowship (ARTWORKS, 2021) and the NEON Scholarship (2020–22). Her work is held in private and institutional collections including the Yageo Foundation, Taipei, and the Xiao Museum of Contemporary Art, Rizhao.
