Description of project:
\n<\/strong>“This dance is not for you” is an artistic project that attempts to activate memories of collective rituals, focusing on rituals of communities that try not to integrate into mass and commercial culture. Special emphasis is placed on the Greek punk subculture and Anastenaria. The interest in the collective rituals of the roots in the observation that the shared ecstatic feeling and the synchronization of the bodies, looks like a communal practice of love, as there is a “dissociation” of the individual ego.
\nThe limits and possibilities of the stage interpretation of such rituals will be explored, without compromising their mystical and “underground” character. The purpose is the creation of a kinetic, choreographic and sound “toolbox” through which the ecstatic rituals and the practices of the performing arts could potentially mingle.<\/p>\n

“My name is Stali Symeon and I’m a dance artist based between Athens and Antwerp. The past two years I have been running research on the limits and possibilities of stage interpretation of collective rituals. In December 2024 I\u00a0was a resident artist in Akropoditi Dance Center for a week. This week was dedicated in detail in movement composition, trying out new scenography elements and letting the dramaturgy of the work unravel. At the and of the week I had the opportunity to share this process with a presentation of a short, in-progress performance and a very heartwarming workshop. Thanks to Akropoditi I had a whole week of uninterrupted studio time and a chance to share my practice and discuss. All of it was really precious for my artistic research, many thanks to all the people who got involved.”<\/span><\/p>\n
