EPHEMERAL SYMBIOSIS 

concept by Ria Alexandrou, Centre of Performing Arts - MITOS, 2024

Ephemeral Symbiosis explores the delineation of the private and public, the conditions between indoor/outdoor, the human intervention and curation of nature. By juxtaposing cultural and natural elements, the Vinegar Factory becomes an evolving environment. The visitors are invited to an immersive installation based on geological findings and constructed narratives where one can discover a path of new perspectives on their surroundings, wonder, listen, walk, contemplate and coexist. A common ground where ground is common.

Exhibition duration: 30 August – 15 September

The installation is the result of a series of excursions that took place in 2024 in Cyprus and a month of intensive work at the Vinegar Factory under the framework of theYard. Residency.24.

 

Accompanying the installation, a collection of zines (visual poetry inspired by the excursions) was made available for visitors to read.
