Ektoras Arkomanis

Ektoras Arkomanis is a filmmaker and a lecturer in architectural history and theory at the School of Art, Architecture and Design, London Metropolitan University. His research revolves around urban areas which remain at the margins of history, plan­ning and the city’s conscience. He uses film for its capacity to preserve and explore, but is ultimately interested in what it omits and its inadequacy in describing things that are no longer there. He is currently editing his second feature film, A Season in the Olive Grove, a documentary about the area of Eleonas in Athens.
