Participation in ''Sisyphos - refugee condition'' in Aisxylia Festival 2013
Sisyphos - refugee condition ."
On August 30, at 19:00 , team En-Flo, set out from Mikrasiaton square of Upper
Elefsina – from the headquarters of the Association of Asia-Minor - and pulling the Sisyphean load crossing the city, which received internal migrants and refugees. Passed through the archaeological site and the square, reaching an old oil mill by the sea , where many refugees first stepped foot in the land of Elefsina. Throughout the Sisyphean route (Dardanelles Str., Eleftherios Venizelos Str., Iroon Politehniou Str., entrance of archaeological site , Nicolaidis Str., Kanellopoulos Str.), Sisyphus and team En-Flo, posed answered questions in the context of refugee status to unsuspecting citizens, such as: “ What am I?” “What am I looking for?” “What does it mean to be a foreigner?”, and slogans like: “I am a cut root” “I need a land to step foot on to, I need a land to step on to”. Until yesterday the arrogance of self-sufficiency had turned friends to foreigners. A foreigner is a friend, En-Flo was calling everyone to make a transgression. In the hard times that we going through, we should consider a refugee as a friend. We must maintain solidarity, to preserve our humanity, we shouldn’t allow difficulties to degrade us. Sisyphus lifted the boulder and spread his answered questions in yet another city, ( thoughts of Heleni Niska , a team member) .
Dimitra Siaterli : “ their obsession (En -Flo team) to roll and pull the " Sisyphean boulder” from street to street in various cities in this country , indicates their willingness to stubbornly resist any imposition that flattens their imagination and creativity. The Sisyphean trajectories are fueled by dreams that cannot be stepped on and refueled from their belief that no game is lost in advance. They invite you become a fellow traveler...”
