In his work he employs a wide range of means of expression: sculpture, painting, installation, video and music. Recently, he has been fascinated with the qualities and mechanisms of memory as well as the role of personal and collective trauma. He is interested in the relationship between ‘play’ and ‘conflict’ and in the way these two different actions can create a feeling of both humour and uncertainty in the work. He adopts familiar material and popular symbols within the technical handling of the work so that the imagery itself can resonate with the viewer, emphasizing the poetic-philosophical content of objects and situations. Through a poetic narrative exploring the fluid nature of the 'real', he wants his work to have a metaphorical function of empirical personal memory.

Tzourovits has been the recipient of the - The Kenneth Armitage Foundation Postgraduate Sculptor Prize 2022 and the UCL East Provosts Art Prize 2022 and the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Fellowship by ARTWORKS in 2022
