Hydroexpress Project – an initiative by Marina Papadaki (Fellow 2019)

09.11.19

Paxon 8 Kaminia

Within a context of experimentation and with the initiative of SNF ARTWORKS Fellow 2019 Marina Papadaki, Hydroexpress Project, opened its doors at November 9th. It is a hybrid space that houses an artist, a plumber and carries the memories of five generations. Its name is borrowed from the plumber’s shop”Ydroexpres”.

Hydroexpress Project is an ongoing project, during which, the events that are going to take place will be accompanied each time by a publication for the purpose of archiving. It is a hybrid that emerged from entering a “readymade”, without encroaching it. It could historically become the continuation of a chronic evolutionary process. There will be no attempt to create a new context or a new state. It will work in reverse. Through intimacy and by deconstructing the identity of the place, it is going to talk about already existing contexts, attitudes, stereotypes, and explore institutions, norms, and socioeconomic patterns.

At the Hydroexpress’ first project the space opens its doors and invites two artists, Anestis Ioannou and Vangelis Savvas, and three curators –Danai Giannoglou (SNF ARTWORKS Fellow 2019), Myrto Katsimicha and Eleni Riga – to place themselves  among this hybrid environment and its own signifieds.
