On the occasion of the GREEK MOMENT project, the studio artists visited Greece in 2014, met with Greek artists, film directors, writers and intellectuals and had the opportunity to experience living in Greece for a short period of time.
Saulnier is wondering: “Is there anything more monumental in Europe today than this GREEK MOMENT? Everyone finds himself in this primordial and contemporary history. Each one of us can understand how important and fragile – at the same time- the structure is.
Trying to capture the title of the project visually, I constructed a greek map made out of flour, positioned onto a sieve. With just a small movement, in a moment, it can collapse. Fragile, ephemeral, sensitive – just like a crisis. -E.Phyla
