About

Konstantinos Papantonis is a visual artist and director based in Athens. He studied at the Athens School of Fine Arts in the studio of Nikos Navridis, specialising in photography under Panos Kokkinias and Nikolaos Arvanitis, and in 3D animation at AKTO. He currently serves as Creative Director at AiWonderLab — an R&D company working at the intersection of artificial intelligence and creative technology.

Installation sits at the core of his practice. He treats it as a layered field of experience, narration, performativity, and memory — working with everyday materials and objects charged with meaning. Detail, decay, and materiality are central to his visual language. His work explores how social structures shape the body, how identity is inscribed into space, and how the past — personal or collective — resurfaces as fragment and trace.

In 2025 he directed the AI short film A Trip to Sargasso Sea, selected across 13 international festivals including AI Venice Awards (Finalist), Brussels Short Film Festival, Bogotá Short Film Festival, NewFilmmakers New York, AI Film Festival Japan, and Miami Art Tech Summit. His installation This Looks More Real Than It Did Yesterday opened at the Athens School of Fine Arts Degree Show 2026.
