Manos Saklas (b. 1998, Athens) is an artist working across contemporary art, radio production and electro-acoustic music. His practice engages with cultural artifacts and compositional methodologies drawn from fields as diverse as acoustic ecology, conceptual art, greek mythology, film-essay, and weather-sensing technologies—underscoring their sociopolitical resonances.
In solo exhibition contexts, he often creates listening spaces with an emphasis to both environmental sound matter and synthetic material agencies. Far from merely interpreting the sonic, his visual works and writings feed into the audible part and are somewhat sonorous themselves. His artworks are often situated at the thresholds of perception, where both formal nuances and sensory processes are being modulated, felt and observed.
Saklas work has been featured internationally in a wide range of settings, including galleries and museums, cultural and academic institutions, concert halls and music festivals, films and fashion, radio and public spaces. He studied visual art at Kunsthøgskolen i Oslo, Royal Institute of Art, and Athens School of Fine Arts as well as electro-acoustic music and sound studies at Xenakis KSYME-CMRC and EMS Elektronmusikstudion.
