  • For this year’s London edition of the fair, AFIKARIS presents a booth that delves into the exploration of the body as both a natural, political and spiritual entity. Each of the six artists probes the intricate relationship between body and environment, exploring its role as both a site of exploitation and a vehicle for deeper, often healing, connections.
