About works

Alexia ACHILLEOS explores the power dynamics shaping technology, with reference to history, culture and geopolitics. With a current focus on artificial intelligence (AI), Alexia examines its impact from a local perspective. Her work re-interprets dominant narratives and questions biases found within history and society, while also challenging the idea of technology as universal and objective. Alexia also attempts to contribute to critical reflections about AI technology within the wider community, and develop work that also has a function outside of conferences and gallery walls. Alexia engages with local communities to speculate on the future of AI from a local, situated perspective.
