A work that attempts to explore the question of
collective memory, the way History stands not other experience of the
past, but also of the present. In a historical path, that it is unclear
whether it is linear or circular, bodies progressively learn how to handle the
fragility of coming together and the search for new land.. Concepts such as uprooting, alienation, violent
expatriation, rupture of the sense of “belonging” and identity, constantly
recur and alternate with each other. A thread from yesterday to today, where collective
memory meets the personal, lived history, the locus of the body and its claims.
Perhaps one should undergo many small, successive deaths, wander beyond the
boundaries and the dividing lines that exist mostly inside them, to manage to
seek a redemptive utopia, an “elsewhere”, a new place.
Production in the framework of the 2022 program, of the institution “All of Greece, One Culture”of the Hellenic Ministry of Culture and Sports.
