Alexandra Niaka

Alexandra Niaka is an interactive media artist. She holds a Master of Architecture in Design for Performance and Interaction from the Bartlett School of Architecture (UCL) and a diploma of Architecture from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.

Her work has been exhibited in the UK (Interactive Architecture Lab, Catapult, etc.), China (Here<>There), Cyprus (Pixel Festival), and Greece (Athens Digital Arts Festival, MOMus Museum, Katsigra Museum, Transition to 8 Festival, etc.). She worked for London-based creative studios, like The Workers (inc.) and Jason Bruges Studio. As creative developer and new media artist, she collaborates at dance and music performances, and theatrical plays as well. In 2020, she obtained the SNF Artist Fellowship Award on Visual Arts from ARTWORKS. She is also a member of the artists’ collective Medea Electronique.

She expresses herself through interactive installations, immersive technologies, and written text. Through her work, she tries to provide creative answers to questions concerning the relation between humans and technology and explore the way in which this relation determines how we perceive, and interact with, our surrounding reality. To that end, she focuses on the use of cutting-edge technology to create Mixed, Virtual, and Augmented Reality experiences.

Alexandra Niaka is a participant of the Onassis AiR/ONX Fellowships program for 2024/25.
