Evanthia Tsantila’s work investigates that which remains after continuous transformations from one medium to the other. Using other practices in her installations like architecture, film, video, theatre, literature, performance and combining them with traditional ones like drawing, is not a way of mixing genres and practices, not a celebration of multifariousness.
The aim is to earn the distance of fine art from these practices, to elucidate and specify the autonomous status of the work of art. To elucidate its solitude. To walk the tightrope that questions pre-given habits of artistic production, exhibition, and of familiar and domesticated viewing, is what supports each of her works.

Her project for KB, a multimedia installation based on a sequence of Ingmar Bergmann’s Silence, is an attempt to transform our perception of cinematographic time, space and narrative into our real time and space, to reconstruct our own narrative.
