Iannis Psallidakos
Iannis Psallidakos studied architecture at the National Technical University of Athens and worked as an architect, ceramist, graphic designer and photographer, until he turned to the sculpture of sound, and more precisely the human voice: a living sound, bodily and spiritual, powerful and fragile.
His work in overtone singing moves between research, pedagogy and performance. From The Grove of Synergy to the Little Theatre of Ancient Epidaurus, it circles questions that seem unanswerable: how the voice fades and how it is born; how breath carries sound, and how it abandons it; how one listens to silences, to cries, to thoughts.
A French state-recognized voice teacher, he leads workshops and retreats across Europe, while a recent master’s thesis at the NTUA, on space, water and resonance, brings him full circle: back to architecture, not as a way of building space but of listening to it.
