In her recent works and research, Tzeni Argyriou has been treating dance as an expression of the human need for contact and as a means of reconnecting with nature and the community –the already-existing one and that created on the spot at each gathering. She is inspired by the legacy of traditional and folk Greek dances as well as contemporary choreographic practices and she also assigns a central role to the relationship between dance and live music. Can dance today express the problems, the questions, and the need of modern humans for sociability? Dancers and musicians shape a visual landscape, making a record of sounds and movements that carry memories of dances from the depths of time but also from the present, and gradually widening the concentric circles of a collective celebration. Can we invent new dances that express us and new rituals that unite us? What would such a celebration look like? Could we all ‘lend a hand’ in creating it? After all, this is what ‘midati’ in the villages of Epirus means: the gathering to create, with everyone’s help, something needed by the community. The MIDATI project was born in the light of these questions, putting at the centre the concepts of community, collectivity, and solidarity.
