Marina Gioti is a filmmaker/visual artist born and based in Athens, Greece. She is a trained Chemical Engineer with post-graduate studies in Environmental Management, Media & Communication, and New Media. In her works, which comprise films, installations, and media art pieces, she often revisits historical eras offering parallel readings to dominant narratives.
Artistic, archival, and scientific research alongside observation play a crucial role in her practice, while objets trouvés and cultural debris serve as raw material or situate themselves at the center of her works.
Her work has been presented worldwide at film festivals (Berlinale, Toronto, CPH:DOX, Jeonju), museum shows (Bozar, MEP, MACRO, EMST), and biennials (Thessaloniki, Anren, Wroclaw Media Art Biennial). In 2017 she was a participating artist at Documenta 14 in Athens and Kassel. She is the laureate of the 2022 Prix COAL for art and ecology.
