BY TZENI ARGYRIOU
Inspired by a photography monograph by Vangelis Nikopoulos, titled “Grevena 1895 – 1975, eighty years of photographs”, choreographer Tzeni Argyriou decided to channel the photography world into the art of multimedia performance.
“Memoria Obscura” is an interplay between memory, light and shadow, photography and sound that uses performance as a means to explore the past in order to stress the dangers of today. Most crucially, it’s a performance about social and historic conscience, about personal and collective responsibility towards History, the History that has already happened and the History that shall happen in the future.
