“Eternal Return #11”
Art Performance by Christina Georgiou
“Eternal Return #11” is the 11th part of a series of performances that focus on repetition as a process of change and transformation, and where time is experienced as being not linear but cyclical and infinite. Inspired by Nietzsche’s notion of the ‘eternal recurrence’, there is an intention to examine the possibilities that might take place through repetitive action, on the physical, emotional and mental body. The application of the existential definition of the constant return occurs through an experiential manner that evolves to a transformative experience.

"SenseSelfEssence” Performance Art Workshop
By Christina Georgiou
Christina Georgiou, realizes the intensive experiential workshop entitled “sense-self-essence”. This workshop combines a series of practical exercises from the field of Performance Art, as a conceptual form of art that exists between image and praxis. Its endeavor is the creation of an experiential perception through empirical processes that concern the self and its existence in the “here and now”. By using the body and self as the basic element of the action, this workshop aims to offer practical and theoretical keys for the development and process of the artists’ work, from any artistic field. The participants will be able to work on the compositional aspects of creating a performance piece through the exploration and understanding of time, space and object in relation to the body as their main tool. The workshop is constructed to increase and utilize personal insight and intuition, while building confidence and decisiveness for the artist’s artistic practice.

Addressed to performance and live artists, visual artists, actors, dancers and artists from diverse backgrounds with an interest in body-based practices. Also to anybody else who is interested in Performance Art.

Methodology: The workshop employs practical exercises, short solo and group performances, theoretical analysis, constructive commentaries, group and individual discussions, reflections, feedback and individual tutoring.

Thematology, Exercises and Techniques are innovative and/ or inspired by a wide range of techniques from the field of arts, psychology and spirituality.
