Play as Protest

It’s always refreshing to be interviewed about my work and to have the opportunity to try to articulate and contextualise it in the current moment…within local and global political seismic shifts. Sari’s questions inspired me to revisit the notion of the personal is political…and to tell myself that every small encounter - a chat with a stranger in my neighbourhood, asking the sales person in the supermarket for her recommendation for the tastiest feta, smiling conspiratorially at every cyclist I see, feeling that day by day a few more of us are pedalling two wheels to resist the constant pressure of increasingly larger cars driving through Athens’ streets - is an opportunity to interrupt and tickle our daily routines with a touch of complicity, care and a dash of humour.
