Ctrlzak,

CTRLZAK is a hybrid studio combining several disciplines and forms of expressions founded by artists and designers Katia Meneghini and Thanos Zakopoulos. The studio works internationally in the field of contemporary art and design, and its creations are based on in-depth research into the cultural history of humanity and the natural world around us in order to create a better future. Thanks to its’ interdisciplinary approach CTRLZAK specialises in art direction while creating artworks, objects and spaces but above all points of reflection where form follows meaning. Through the use of semiotic tools within the creative process the studio conceives projects and orchestrates situations that overcome common aesthetic values operating on a deeper cognitive level, aspiring to make people consider their actions and the planet that we live in.

Katia Meneghini has always been passionate about calligraphy and art history, while her contemporary projects develop through relational processes and mechanisms which place emphasis on human interaction. Her approach to art is based on social research with the use of performances, installations and documentation. At the same time she is keen in investigating the possibility of a multi-disciplinary design related to different aspects of social life using the methodologies gained through her social art experiences.

Thanos Zakopoulos is a creator of varied forms and contexts. An artist, a designer and a photographer amongst other things, he likes to bring together different disciplines and situations creating projects which balance between contemporary art & design. He has presented and participated in many exhibitions around the world and has given lectures in various occasions in Europe and China.
