Marina Xenofontos (b. 1988, Limassol, Cyprus) lives and works in Athens, Greece. Her practice engages with cultural memory, collective narratives, and the politics of display, often navigating the thresholds between public and private space. She holds an MFA in Sculpture from the Milton Avery School of the Arts at Bard College, New York, and was a resident at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam (2018–2019). Recent solo exhibitions include “Overnight Coup Plan” at Mint, Stockholm (2025); “Things We Lost” at Kunstverein Ganterhaus, Vienna (2025); “Eternal, Returns” at Fondazione Morra Greco, Naples (2025); “View From Somewhere Near” at Kunstverein Hamburg (2024); and “In Practice” at SculptureCenter, New York (2023). Her work has also been presented in group exhibitions such as “Same Day,” the 15th Baltic Triennial in Vilnius; “The Cynics Republic” at Palais de Tokyo, Paris; and “We can only begin to notice” at NiMAC, Nicosia. In 2023, she presented “Public Domain” at Camden Art Centre in London, following her receipt of the Camden Art Centre’s Emerging Artist Prize at Frieze in 2022.
Marina Xenofontos is an Onassis AiR Fellow for 2025/26 through the AiR/ONX Fellowships program.
