Julyen Hamilton – Interview – AVDP | Direction & Choreography: AVDP | GR | 25′ | AUDIO: EN | SUBS: GR

For more than forty years, Julyen Hamilton has been creating performances, directing and teaching throughout Europe and beyond. Born in England, he has lived in Amsterdam, Girona in Spain and Athens, shaping a path that bridges places, time and modes of presence. His artistic practice is deeply rooted in improvisation. He composes live on stage, collaborating with dancers, musicians and artists from other fields, creating works that are born in the moment.
As he says, “I have constantly made work from a radical point of view.” This approach runs through not only the form but also the philosophy of his creative process. In this interview, he speaks about his life in relation to art and how this relationship evolves, shaping both his own path and his social surroundings. He shares thoughts on human connection, aging, life and death, and reflects on his role in a world that is constantly changing, inviting us to actively take part in the flow of this transformation.

ATHENS VIDEO DANCE PROJECT (AVDP)

ATHENS VIDEO DANCE PROJECT (AVDP) is an initiative founded in 2010 in Athens and has been organized by the Non Profit Organisation BelleVille. AVDP offers the ground for fruitful meetings and dialogue among artists from all over the world. It enhances not only the visibility of the art of videodance, but also the diversity of new media and technologies, the art of contemporary dance and multimedia dance performances, the performance and the cinema.
For the above reasons, there are five programs that reflect the idea of AVDP: the annual AVDP Festival – International Dance Film Festival, AVDP edu – Educational Program, AVDP on TouR and AVDP in Community and AVDP tv.
