The films for PCAI’s artist-in-residence programme on the island of Tilos, directed by Ilias Madouros, will premiere at the former Pikionis Pavilion, now “pi”, from April 10 to 14. The screening programme aims to explore how the principles of circular economy can inspire creativity, collaboration and regenerative thinking in architecture, design crafts, materials and urban design.
As part of the Just Go Zero Tilos powered by Polygreen project, PCAI launched the first PCAI Tilos Residency in 2022 with artists Hypercomf and designer duo The New Raw.
The successful artist-in-residence programme continued in 2023, for the second consecutive year. PCAI in collaboration with the British Council, in the framework of the Circular Cultures (Making Matters) programme, invited the British interdisciplinary artist collective, RESOLVE. The artist collective was on the island of Tilos in October 2023, with the aim of exploring possible environmental solutions through the lens of artistic creativity and the means that art provides.
Since 2022, the course of the research and creation process of the artistic groups has been captured by director Ilias Madouros through various films filmed on Tilos during the creators’ stay on the island. Ilias Madouros is a director and filmmaker with studies in Athens and Berlin. His work deals with the notions of time, cultures and people, and the way stories are weaved through their interaction.
