City Index II, 2007

EASA 07, Elefsina, organized/curated by Kormoranos.
Drawings on printed adhesives installed on windows, variable dimensions.

My city index attempts to depict a reflection of mysterious ancient side of the town into the everyday scenery. Ppeople walking by, old trees, new pedestrians and urban structures are found in between, extending the physical view towards the window. Sketches, real objects and blurred transparencies are connected and mixed into forming the new greek reality.

EASA (European Architecture Sudents Assembly), was founded 27 years ago as a european network of young architects with the aim of investigating contemporary architecture, urbanism and technology. In the rich variety of events centered around the theme put forth by the host city, Elefsina was discussed as a city in transition and in search of a new identity, with a rich industrial heritage. The theme was in itself a platform for ideas for the meetings which have “city-index” as a theme. EASA's 07’s specific goal was to explore the complexity of the urban environment and decode Alefsina’s contemporary image.
