CURRENT Athens is an online platform for the non-hierarchical promotion of contemporary art.
We are bombarded daily with images of natural disasters in the global South. Environmental and climate change have filtered through our collective conscience as something abstract and distant. But how is Greece changing? What is being currently lost?
Part A: Mosaic of Loss
How have Greek people experienced their immediate environment change throughout the last years? How has this impacted their lives?
A performance based on testimonials that we collected from people all over Greece, contending with an environment that is ever-changing, often unpredictably.
Performers: Xenia Tabourlou and Dimitris Tsikouras
Part B: performative installation ‘Overnature #2’
How do we imagine the future through our art?
A re-examination of Overnature (2017)’.(https://www.ellieantoniou.me/copy-of-roomwithaview-2). A collaboration between Ellie Antoniou and Pantelis Pilavios. Drawing from their diverse backgrounds (video and sound), the two artists combine a CGI video projection with the original soundtrack of the artwork.
A party will follow with the sounds of Chrisanthy Oncow and The Callas
There will also be a free contribution box in the space so that we can cover the expenses of the event.
