STEP 54 | FEELING THE SPACE

with Eleni Pavlopoulou17/06/24, 20/09/2024 Steps Upcoming

I have always taken note of the relationship human’s grow and withdraw from objects and spaces. I have explored the connection to my family home through performance, printing and drawing. With my familial ties to Greece it is a parallel narrative of a place I connect to via family, land and objects. Personally, I want to explore my response and relationship with my heritage, addressing feelings of displacement in both a physical and emotional sense. The parallel narrative of my father finding his roots in a foreign country and me trying to discover my own in his. I also look to discuss diaspora in a wider context through the reality and relevance of people’s histories across borders in today’s societies. What ultimately makes up an individual’s sense of belonging?
