"InDance - Public Performance"

Performance poster

"In a constantly moving world, a busy collective is seeking for rest and finds it through peaceful occupation of space. Bodies as remnants of something greater, undermine the idea of protest as being the sole answer."

InDANCE exploring accessibility through Inclusive DANCE, seeks to unite individuals from diverse European backgrounds. Ten disabled and non-disabled dancers choreograph collectively an open-air performance which will dynamically navigate through various urban spaces around Athens, inviting audiences on a journey that underscores the importance of accessibility and art in public environments.

Accessibility

Dr. Emmanouela Patiniotaki, Chief Executive Officer of ATLAS E.P. advised the team on the sensory accessibility of the performance in public spaces. Thus, ATLAS E.P. joined forces with the artistic team in order to create an alternative framework of participatory accessibility and interaction of the audience with the dance collective.
