Site-specific performance at the Archaeological site of Eleusis

ELEUSIS EUROPEAN CAPITAL OF CULTURE (2023-24)

Why do we visit an archaeological site today? What do we seek there?

The action is informed by the following principles:

Every archaeological site is a Necropolis
Every visit there is a Νekyia – a voyage to the realm of shadows
Every archaeological site is a theatre of human History
Every archaeological site is silent and mute
Every archaeological site is an encryption of Time
