Περιγραφή

Breath of Light is a site-specific and participatory dance-theatre performance created especially for the Archaeological Site of Ancient Corinth and the Sanctuary of Apollo. Inspired by the symbolism of Apollo’s seven-string lyre, the work unfolds as a ritual journey through seven stages, where music, movement, spoken word, voice, and light come together to create an experience of transformation from fragmentation to harmony.

Drawing upon Corinthian mythology, the performance engages with the contemporary human need to rediscover balance and inner measure in a world marked by overstimulation, technological acceleration, and social division. Through the active participation of local choirs, volunteers, and audience members, the archaeological site is transformed into a living space of collective memory, rhythm, and reconnection.
