n/a
What do you take with you when suddenly you have to leave your home?
On the anniversary of the Turkish Invasion of Cyprus, performance Artist Lorna Eleonora Vassiliades creates a ritual of grief and mnemonic resistance through the suitcase and items her family grabbed when they were forced to flee from their home in Famagusta.
Everyone with experience and/or a heritage of forced displacement is invited to bring an item with them.
We will end dancing a Greek circle dance together as a symbol of unity.
Estimated running time: 60 minutes
