To coincide with Kalliopi Lemos' presentation at Frieze Sculpture Park 2020 we are delighted to present a series of works that provide an outlook on her practice and career to date. Visit the London gallery today to discover the artist's versatile practise with the focus on human rights, the issue of increasing global undocumented migration and female oppression.
Kalliopi Lemos is a Greek-born, London-based sculptor, painter and installation artist. She studied painting and printing at Byam Shaw School of Art, University of the Arts London, Central Saint Martins, where she also pursued post-graduate studies. She studied the art of Ikebana for 15 years. Over the past decade, her paintings, sculpture, and installations have explored the narrative of existential journeys, displacement and the politics of forced migration. During the last decade Lemos has exhibited extensively in various international venues.
