We are very excited to bring our sound installation Lament for a Burnt Forest to Athens, the place where this piece was birthed and nurtured. The composition evolved out of recordings made in Athens with a group of female vocalists, following a visit to the burnt forests on Parnitha and Penteli mountain. This immersive sound piece serves as a contemporary mourning ritual. We warmly welcome you to gather at @alkinois

‘Born Twice’
Solo exhibition at Alkinois Arts Space
Athens, Greece

Comprising of a new body of sculptures, paintings, and drawings, the exhibition will be on view until 19 September.

According to the artist, “To be born twice presents the notion of dual being, of dual states of consciousness. The circle of dying and rebirth. That which we believe true and that which we generate momentarily in the liminal spaces of being and becoming, of categorisation and the borders of reality.

The word Διγενής (Digenis) relates more specifically to Βασίλειος Διγενής Ακρίτας, the legendary medieval epic hero saddling East and West in his origins and thereby being twice born of the borders as his name implies. Perhaps he is the evolution of the borderless deity Dionysus who as well as being literally born twice, had his duality dissolved beyond the East and West, to states of birth and death, segueing the realms of the underworld, physical bodies, be that of species, gender, states of consciousness or categorisation.”

Staying in Athens for July? ⠀
⠀
While the streets slow down for summer, the city's independent galleries are doing the opposite. This month is the best time to step out of the heat and into some of the backstreet spaces that keep the local scene moving.

This summer, you must pass by Athens to see “Born Twice” by the high priestess of Mount Parnassus @zoe_paul_studio at @alkinois by @alixjanta ; a magnetic chasm that will lead you to Dionysus and the eternal spiral.

Zoe’s text is also so pertinent that I couldn’t help share it amongst the images. I now know we are not alone in this quest after swimming in these waters for the last three years and our circle is expanding.
