BIOGRAPHY

Lilia Ziamou is a Greek and American sculptor based in New York City. Her work begins with bone and draws on the enduring resonance of the fractured bodies of Greek sculpture, where partial figures still convey the presence of the whole. Through classical sculptural techniques and technological processes, she reconfigures bone into body, wound, flesh, and surface. Her background and research in technological innovation form the conceptual foundation of her practice, where technology functions both as a tool and as a way of seeing and reimagining the body from within, revealing a body that transforms and yet endures, like the ancient fragments that first inspired her. Her work explores how contemporary technologies allow the body to be repaired, redesigned, optimized, and enhanced, opening it toward new possibilities of reinvention.
