World Refugee Day
Plateia Dexamenis - Athens - 21.06.2019
The world refugee day is an international date observed on June 20th each year by the United Nations. The organisation I was working with - The Home Project - created an open-air event in a square named Dexamenis. This picture is very symbolic to me. We are all dancing together and stepping with the same foot, for the first time, in harmony with the music and among ourselves. I would like to reinforce that being together and doing the steps synchronized is valuable, according to my objectives with this work, in order to create a structure to provide an atmosphere of aggregation and not one focused on the accurate and precise repetition of movements. It was of great importance to use the festive environment we were in to create appropriate conditions to bond through dance.
