Irini is a dance artist, researcher and educator. Her practice revolves around choreography and machine learning ~ artificial intelligence, exploring critical and caring ways of engaging with the human body. She usually employs qualities of speculation, liminality and playfulness to address issues of physical and digital injury, optimisation and (mis)classification.
Her works vary from performance lectures to video art, articles and scores and have been presented in venues such as Onassis Stegi, Somerset House, The V&A, Stanley Picker Gallery, Bangalore International Center, and Cairo Citadel.
Parallel to her artistic practice, Irini works as a lecturer in the department of Computational Arts, Goldsmiths University of London, and as an associate lecturer in the Creative Computing Institute, UAL, teaching Machine Learning for Artistic Practice, and Choreography as Hacking among other modules.
