ASTATHIA is a state of mind where the painstakingly carefully built structure of oneself begins to crack, to succumb to uncertainty. By chance or choice every encounter, event or experience brings tension to an already precarious balance.
About
Astathia in Greek is the negation of constancy, which also happens to be my name’s origin; hence an opportunity to question my identity.
Stathis Dimitriadis was born in Greece where he trained as a Chemical Engineer. After apprenticing to a potter and following various art courses he started his own studio practice in Wimbledon in 2008. In 2011 he completed an MA by project in Fine Arts at the Sir John Cass department of Arts of the London Metropolitan University. He was a finalist at the Broomhill National Sculpture Prize 2016, the Royal British society of Sculptors First@108 Public Art Award 2015 and has exhibited in ceramic Biennials in Spain, Austria, Portugal, Germany and Romania.
