Transatlantic, A postfeminist Pop Requiem
What has changed, what are the developments in your work, since the last interview?
I don’t remember when was our last interview actually, but I remember it was an interesting conversation, so much that it got dark and we forgot to turn on the lights. I think since then we’ve dealt with the poetics of object more conceptually without transformations but mostly with its everydayness. We have moved almost permanently to France and we are constantly researching anew. We also made four creations for purely theatrical spaces, which was a great surprise for us as well, as we overturned some of our beliefs, if only for a while. It is allowed, isn’t it?

After a decade of successive crises (economic, social, environmental, health) what changes and developments do you notice have occurred in the contemporary dance scene in Greece and what do you think is missing?
I cannot say with certainty. We do not follow the greek contemporary dance scene research-wise nor in depth. But every act of intelligence contains politics and thus may have a political impact.

How might we imagine the landscape of dance in the next ten years?
I don’t know. Our personal goal is to try to continue to be active and observe younger people. It’s normal to hope!
