Counterpoints: A Poetic Response to the Lockdown Era
Amidst the challenges of the pandemic’s initial lockdown in spring 2020, we proudly contributed our video-poem, „Counterpoints / ΑΝΤΙΣΤΙΞΕΙΣ,“ to London’s Theatre Lab Company festival, „Stories from the Lockdown Era.“ Crafted by poet Anastasia Gkitsi and video artist Janni Kolotouros, our work captures the essence of resilience and creativity in difficult times.
Translated into English by Christiana Mygdali and into German by Kathearina Liatzoura, our project received additional depth. Supported by the Rosa Luxembourg Stiftung, our message of unity and resilience shines through in the face of uncertainty.
Join us on this journey of reflection through poetry and art.
