Dimitris Rentoumis

about

 

Dimitris Rentoumis was born in Athens, Greece in 1980. His studio works encompass collages, painting on papers, large-scale drawings with ink and graphite, sculptural installations, and video projections. The works on paper are characteristic of his practice. They cross the boundary between being painted surfaces and appearing as objects that demonstrate sculptural qualities. They are presented with folds on the wall or as floor pieces carrying the traces of an erosive process accumulated and embodied in the work. His installations of sculptural ruins, graphite drawings, and abstract videos examine the dependence of our perception on the formations of a decaying or everchanging materiality. He has presented his works in various shows in Greece, the Netherlands, and abroad.
