Gianni Kazakis (b. 1998) is an interdisciplinary artist whose work examines the experience of color within human defined consciousness. Most of his work remains untitled, identified only by unique serial numbers to avoid interpretive bias so the viewer encounters them without guided interpretation. He studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze (Florence State Academy of Fine Arts) in Italy on a fully funded scholarship.

Kazakis creates work that exists solely for the purpose of experience. He moves outside standard frameworks that require translation, approval, or exchange. His work refuses to signal its worth, being fixed or preserved, and leaves no claim to possession. It appears, and disappears, answering to nothing beyond the experience itself.
