An enclosed place for dreams – On the hill (2021)

In June 2019, a group of artists and people who love movement, met on the hill of Pnyx to produce the collective performance "A fenced place of dreams". It was a prophetic reflection on the concept of demarcation, which from a tool of artistic expression and a condition of emotional and physical security, turned into an unprecedented "shield" against the "enemy" COVID-19.

A year later, with the end of the quarantine in Greece, we met again on the hill creating the lasting project "On the hill", a recording in image, sound and text, of the movement of bodies, thoughts and senses that they carry, capturing the mutation and the course of the bodies from inclusion back to contact.

In November 2020, with the imposition of the new quarantine, "On the Hill" is stopped and we create a comparative video documentary in silence, capturing the before, the after and the way back to a new enclosure.
