Greek Artists at the Europalia
... Nikos Zouboulis - Titsa Grekou
These two artists make an extensive contribution to the exploration
of the field of performance using the body as well as sound,
technology and spectacle. Their work constitutes
a comprehensive performance whose actions are rendered
into sculptures.
They use a thin membrane-screen which surrounds the action
to separate memory (history) from the direct activation of the present
as represented by the spontaneity of the body.
The membrane falls down in shreds and memory dominates
the space. This is the main concept in a series of performances
in which new plastic and narrative solutions emerge each time...
