Steve Zafeiriou (b. 1998, Thessaloniki, GR) is a New Media Artist, Technologist, and Founder of Saphire Labs. His practice investigates how technology can influence, shape, and occasionally distort the ways individuals perceive the external world. By employing generative algorithms, electronic circuits, and interactive installations, he examines human behavior in relation to the illusory qualities of perceived reality, inviting observers to reconsider their assumptions and interpretations.

Bonded Studio grew from years of artistic research into attention, intimacy, behavior, and the "connected but disconnected" generation paradox.

Join the waitlist to get early access, product updates, and the opportunity to help shape Bonded before its public launch.

Technology should help us become more present, not more performative.
