Smaragda Nitsopoulou is a video artist and film director and editor from Greece. Through her practice, she is exploring the themes of memory and death in the Anthropocene era. Using found footage for her interactive pieces, she is aiming to evoke the ecumenical experience of death among the living. She has participated in several international festivals and art fairs such as Documenta 14, Slavonian Biennale, Video Art Miden & Simultan. In 2021, she completed her first feature-length documentary "Death Under Control".
