“Yes. After the Greek crisis, I became a political artist. If it wasn’t for the Greek crisis, an a-political artist I would be… For sure. Praise the Lord for the Greek crisis! Now all Greek artists, we’re amazing!” 😏
This ARTIST PORTRAIT video was created for the first European Dancehouse Network (EDN) Meeting in Athens, held at the Isadora & Raymond Duncan Dance Research Center (DDRC).
For the “Placements / Responses / Positions” screening, thirteen Greek artists were asked to present how the Greek crisis has affected their thinking and work.
It includes extracts from THE WALK [2013], OSMOSIS [2012], RELIC [2015] and DEAREST WELCOMING LEMNOS [2014].
