Join artist Antigoni Tsagkaropoulou ("Fishwife") and invited collaborator Lykourgos Porfyris (POP Tektonism) for a performative audio-visual narration of fairy tales dealing with hybridity, sexuality, vulnerability, trauma and radical tenderness.
About
To open Fluffy Library, POP Tektonism will tell the story of the white little thingy who is transformed into a Cockatoo parrot. The story explores sexuality, disability and the monster identity, through Tektonism’s personal experiences as a pansexual albino and half blind. Vulnerable Monsters will be told in four chapters, illustrated with drawings and songs inspired by friendship and radical tenderness, all performed atop Fluffy.
Fishwife will share the story of Fluffy and their friends, the Hairy Fairy, the Dragon Princess, the Pony, the little Mermaid. The creation of the fairy tales took place inside Fluffy Library's first incarnation, a year’s residency in Athens, curated by Vassilis Zidianakis, the Artistic Director of ATOPOS cvc - and the stories grow as they come to Arnolfini.
