Chimera
Opening 14 June. 2025

Chimera is a project that embraces a vision of performative arts as composite, improbable, and sometimes contradictory elements, creating unique and hybrid forms. At the heart of chimera lies a deep desire to merge boundless love for performance art, festive frameworks, and independent spaces.
Program
Untitled one by @konstantinos_damis and @eleni.fotou & @lefteris_v
08.00PM - At the core of this project is the desire to bring together two artistic realms that frequently intersect yet rarely merge in depth: fashion and the performing arts. Conceived specifically for chimera, the piece invites fashion designer Konstantinos Damis to collaborate with dancers Eleni Fotou and Lefteris Vasilopoulo, in a dialogue that challenges and reconfigures the codes of the fashion world. Here, the garments are not mere costumes but sources of inspiration — the movement emerges from the clothing, rather than clothing being shaped to fit the movement.
The Fence by @fo.matel (work in progress)
09:30PM - The Fence is a spoken word performance built from an endless text, where barriers collapse and reconfigure in a constant process of deconstruction. It embodies both structure and its dissolution, becoming a form that divides, connects, and confines. It speaks in fragments, unfolding as a torrent of confessions, contradictions, refusals, and borrowings. Drawing on both found and original writings, and shaped by an embodied approach to performativity, the piece assembles a patchwork of porous, unstable, and unresolved thoughts.
Untitled two by @konstantinos_damis In collaboration with @fruitgillette and special guests
10:30PM - Developed in collaboration with multidisciplinary artist Fruit Gillette — whose pop music draws from the melodramatic romance and theatrical heartbreak characteristic of 1990s and 2000s Greek divas — the performance reconfigures the visual and gestural codes of the runway to produce a space of excess and stylized vulnerability.

“Flip the table”
collective writing workshop
led by Christina Reinhardt
4/10/2025
18:00-20:00
at Big Table
maximum number of participants: 13
Workshop description
“Flip the table” is a collective writing workshop led by Christina Reinhardt that flips the idea of the individual writing table into a common table of citational practices, collective memory making, and community politics around textual form. What if the privacy and isolation of the writer is undermined, and the writing table becomes a site of multiple references, collective textual archaeology and interactive association over a wide range of references? “Flip the table” will be a writing jam, an ecosystem of thinking and writing with others escaping the supposed individuality of the writer. A plural repository of singular inputs that loses track of intellectual property and belonging. The group will work with a variety of quotes stemming from diverse sources around the object “table” and work on a collective text as a common writing ground.
Preparation material

- A quote from a person close to you concerning a table.
