Spiros Panigirakis (2008), Singapore

Spiros Panigirakis is a Melbourne-based visual artist whose art practice involves working with groups in both curatorial and collaborative capacities. Panigirakis is interested in how curatorial frameworks and presentational devices work in the visual arts. He recently explored these issues in two publications - Enjoy's (Wellington, NZ) Critical Publics and Fiona Macdonald's publication Gratuitous Intent. He has presented projects at a range of artist-run initiatives including Loose projects, 1st Floor Artists and Writers Space and CLUBSprojects. Anecdotes about food captivate him and Panigirakis used this energy in a project regarding hawker cuisines at p-10 in Singapore.
