They forced us out. They made us leave. Walking the route of displaced, in the center of Athens.

Location: Historical Archive, Miaoulis Square, Ermoupoli Syros

Along with the video presentation we had made in Athens. We were forced out of here. “Walking the routes of the displaced” we told stories about immigration-border displacement histories while a rope we had brought from the shipyard of Ermoupolis was around us, prevented us, it was suffocating. The action from the stairs of the historical archive was transferred to Miaoulis square where the rope, which symbolized the borders restricted us, marked us. We cut it, we got out of it, and in the end a game took place so as to occupy the area of the square.
