Ismini Kyritsis is a curator and art historian working at the intersection of art, science, and ecology. With a specific interest in the ecological and societal impact of digital technologies, her curatorial practice takes an ecosystemic turn shaping connections between different entities, disciplines and practices. Through exhibitions, research, and residencies, she fosters dialogue between human, natural, and technological entities while developing curatorial methodologies that respond to ecological and ethical uncertainties.

Ismini holds a Masters degree in Arts and Culture (Museums and Collectiosn) from Leiden University (2023) and a postgraduate degree in Curatorial Studies form the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent (2024). In recent years she has co-curated exhibitions and public programs in Kusthal Ghent (BE), Het Paviljoen (BE), Vleeshal (NL), iMAL (BE) and TINC (KR). She is currently part of Off-Centre, a collective of art workers bringing visibility to local art initiatives within the neighborhoods of Brussels through public tours and workshops. With a focus on artist-run spaces, its members aspire to foster community engagement, encourage mutual support, and create opportunities to learn from local collectives who demonstrate resilience in face of cultural and economic challenges.
