Patricia Christakos - multimedia artist

Artist Statement

Patricia Christakos is an interdisciplinary artist, writer, and curator specializing in photography, experimental video, installation, and collage. She lives in Cazenovia and southwest Florida. Using found, archival, and original materials, she creates layered, semi-autobiographical domestic narratives. Christakos established CauseGood Prints, an exhibition aimed at raising awareness and funds for organizations supporting the health and safety of women and girls. In 2025, in association with the Laughlin Gallery, of Chicago, CauseGood supported the Center for Reproductive Rights.

Christakos' photo-based and video work has been featured nationally and internationally. Most recently, her experimental video, Possibilities, received the “Critics’ Pick” award at the Syracuse MicroFilm Festival at the Everson Museum Plaza in October 2024. Her latest project, Spirts of the Flowers Keep Watch, examines the life of Jeanne Barret, an 18th-century botanist and the first woman to circumnavigate the globe.

She holds an MFA in Media Arts from Maine Media College in Rockport, Maine and a BS in Journalism from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University. She is a member of the Living Poets of Boca Grande. And most importantly, she served as Dorothy Riester’s first assistant at Stone Quarry Art Park.
