Chrysanthi  Badeka

enjoys
kinetic coincidences and synthetic experiences


explores the transmedia way of creative thinking and composing, where
narrations extend beyond multiple media forms

focuses on the ‘mobilisation of the term choreography’, emphasizing on the interdisciplinary expansion of dance & comp research

seeks the freedom of creative expression and tolerance through the fusion of diverse artistic tools                                                                

desires the reuse of pre-existing artistic elements in a new ensemble
                             

flirts with the re-conceptualisation of preconditioned roles and relationships

keeps a weather eye on  time, scale, flow, poetic imagination, mixed reality, artificial and human intelligence

believes that art is plausibly a weapon

contributes to the creation of 'situations' that fuse art and politics into everyday life

Athens, 6 July 2020

It's been 10 years of fully commitment to ATHENS VIDEO DANCE PROJECT. I can’t note down all the profound encounters I had within this journey with enlightened artists, researchers, curators, artistic directors, producers, collaborators, volunteers, audience and supporters. I feel content with the amazing network that has been built with hard work and interstate solidarity between festivals and col
laborators, bringing this hybrid art form to the force inside Greek community - the power of dances on the screen, which I fell in love with 20 years ago and still do. Now it is time to change my focus of my practice, from directing AVDP and curating its screening programs to propelling dance film making as a practice for social transformation, alongside with my artistic research and curiosity on dance composition, using mixed media in merge with technology and science.

THANK YOU ALL for your trust and generosity to share your gifts with me, supporting my vision
to spread videodance out and transform AVDP to a strong festival that can last in time. See you out there folks!
