The exhibition opens with the performance AEQUARE by artist Pinelopi Triantafyllou in collaboration with the dancers Iro Xyda and Ieva Bražėnaitė.

AEQUARE

__(lat.) derives from aequalis, meaning action of making equal, equalizing

AEQUARE is a dance performance that explores wearable artwork through a dystopic universe, which is constantly shifting and changing. The starting point was “The Big Other”, a textile artwork created by Penelope Triantafyllou in 2019, consisting of a men’s jacket covered with hand-knitted female breasts. This work was inspired by Artemis of Ephesus.
