Annabelle

Annabelle is a site-specific performance that took place in the giant burnt rooms of the Psiloritis Refrigerators. The performance was inspired by a Zoroastrian funeral rite performed by our friend Nikos Branidis for his cat, Annabelle. Zoroastrians used to leave their deceased loved ones in the highest points of the city, singing hymns that call the vultures to feed on our deceased loved ones. In the performance, we utilized the natural acoustic properties of the space to invite the birds or to transform ourselves into them. The performance was accompanied by texts from Soren Kierkegaard and Giorgos Efthimiou.

    In the dim silence of an abandoned building, The Visitors emerge through augmented reality, fragmented sculptures floating where walls once held memory. Their forms, stitched from digital echoes and recycled matter, shimmer against the cracked concrete, observing without eyes. As you move through the space, their presence shifts with you, not haunting, but remembering. https://openar.art/a/7v7CsgLRGqffJt03…

    Guilding Abandoned Insect Nests As we explored the burnt down, abandoned Psiloritis building, I discovered what looked like small balls of clay thrown on the wall: sand-coloured, mysterious blobs fixed in corners high up on walls and against the ceiling. My curiosity was piqued and when I got up close I realized they were abandoned…
