About

Gregor Petrikovič (b. 1995) is a Slovak-British artist and filmmaker based in London. His practice operates at the intersection of lens-based media, critical technology, movement and performative installation. Drawing inspiration from his academic background in philosophy, his work explores the fragility of human connection, exploring the tension between digital alienation and organic presence.

He holds an Master’s in Photography from the Royal College of Art, London (EN), where he was a Burberry Design Scholar. His works have been exhibited internationally at venues including New Contemporaries 2026, Tate Late, and IDFA DocLab, as well as Sónar+D Barcelona. He is an alumnus of the ISCP Residency New York and a 2025 FLAMIN Fellow at Film London.
