Τhe Oracles of Water
31.07 — 01.08.2023
Description
In the new original work The Oracles of Water, director and choreographer Apostolia Papadamaki creates a modular, interactive and participatory site-specific performance connecting climate change and the global water crisis with the mythical background and worship of Apollo in Delphi. Through a trajectory of meanings, she aspires to put together scientific discoveries and findings, historical facts, mythical entities and high concepts, by associating studies on the effects of climate change in the wider area of Delphi and the consequences of human intervention in its water table with the global water crisis. The performance transcends traditional boundaries, using the power of art to attract audiences both spiritually and emotionally. It serves as a reminder of humanity’s responsibility to protect the planet’s most valuable resource and encourage collective action to mitigate the effects of climate change.
Every performance consists of two parts. The first part takes place between 6.30-7.30, at sunrise, at the Temple of Athena Pronaia and the second part between 20.00-21.10 at the archaeological site of Delphi. Attending both parts is mandatory.
