Lydia Miligkou (b.1995, Athens) is a visual artist and film art director.

She works with textiles, discontinuity, sculpture, derailed thoughts and situated research. Moving between material experimentation and psychoanalytic inquiry, she attempts to sculpt forms that investigate patterns of belonging, estrangement, and attachment. The insistence of psychoanalytical Lack in her work, refers to the allure of a lost reality; something that we once had and we were complete, but now it's missing; a promise of a wholeness that never existed yet persists as a physical weight in the present. Her practice continually negotiates this gap, transfusing dissonant peripheral memories into our hyper-mediated fragmented present.

She has been awarded the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Fellowship by ARTWORKS (2021), and the Best Production Design award in DISFF (2025). She has participated in group exhibitions and festivals and presented her work at Stavros Niarchos Foundation x DELTA (Athens); Athens & Epidaurus festival (Athens); Friche la Belle de Mai (Marseille); European Cultural Centre of Delphi (Delphi); Benaki Museum (Athens); Museum of Natural History (Meteora); Witch Rave Festival (Berlin); and 11th Sonic Arts Festival (Corfu), among others. Her work is part of Domes of Elounda collection, commissioned by Urban Soul Project. Her poems have been published in Teflon magazine and have been presented at poetry slam events (Atopos CVC). Since 2018 she has been working in the art department of several Greek and international film productions.
