Eterotopia is a video art piece by Ioanna Tzampa developed as a postgraduate project in 2023-2024. It stages a place within a place, a field that violates conventional time and produces a restricted zone where the real and the unreal meet and challenge one another. The notion of platforms appears as both a literal and metaphorical axis, suggesting structures of access, comparison and competition that map and reflect the site itself.

Technically the work draws on video art strategies such as looping, rhythmic montage and color grading to displace temporal expectation. Typography functions as a sculptural element in the frame and helps to articulate the spatial reading, while layered imagery and selective erasure of detail produce a liminal area between familiarity and strangeness. Image processing, editing pace and sound design are used sparingly and deliberately so that every technical decision intensifies the sense of a heterotopic environment.

Watching the piece asks viewers to actively negotiate boundaries of access, to read competing platforms and to observe how spatial relationships become measures of rivalry and mirrors of locality. Whether presented on a single screen or as part of an installation, Eterotopia creates a concentrated, reflective experience that lingers as an impression of a site inhabited by multiple, overlapping realities.
