Soft Ruins
A site-responsive series of artworks unfolding within the husks of abandoned buildings, spaces which are eroded, shifted, or vanished partly. These works engage with absence, with what remains after dwelling has ceased. It is a method of remembering through material, a crease that holds the residue of presence.
Intimacy meets erosion, where traces linger in dust, shadow, and broken thresholds. The artworks do not reconstruct what once was. Instead, they are revealing how memory shelters itself in corners, objects, and gestures long after the inhabitants are gone. Each artwork draws from the surrounding architecture, collaborating with broken floors, exposed beams, and weathered textures to animate the forgotten.
Echoes of Emptiness
an augmented reality experience for the Heriscope project by Communitism.
It transforms abandoned spaces into interactive, hybrid environments using augmented reality (AR) sculptures. By placing posters with QR codes at selected sites, visitors can unlock and interact with digital objects, reimagining these forgotten spaces as dynamic centers for community engagement and speculative futures. This web-based AR experience fosters creative exploration, dialogue, and social transformation, turning neglected urban areas into platforms for collective imagination and cultural revitalization.
Super Sport
https://supersport.projektraum.org
Super Sport emerged from a loose collective wandering through Athens in search of overlooked, abandoned sites—places where artists could respond freely, without curatorial frameworks, entry fees, or the obligation to produce artist statements. Its name nods playfully to a defunct sports-equipment factory in Elaionas, subtly poking at fixed ideas of how contemporary art is supposed to function.
Uniting practitioners from graffiti, installation, painting, music, sculpture, and performance, Super Sport cultivates spontaneous collaborations, site-responsive exhibitions, and workshops that foreground artistic resilience in times of economic precarity.
