EXPANSION

(2025)

audiovisual performance by Philolaos Kougias

Program notes

“Fremdsein" (being an outsider) and “Verfremdung” (alienation) are two terms that, at first glance, don’t seem to have much in common. And yet both revolve around the feeling of distance, of being different.


While “being an outsider” often arises from external labels, “alienation” is an artistic strategy that challenges familiar perspectives.
