ABOUT THE WORK

Sto Laimo unfolds through a collective, polyphonic process based on the creator’s eponymous feature-length script. Ten autonomous works — spanning performance, video art and sound — converge into a unified hybrid performative environment.

At its core, the piece addresses childhood sexual abuse and the mechanisms of silence surrounding it. Set in a village that appears to conceal more than it reveals, the story of Nefeli becomes a psychological landscape where trauma resurfaces through projection, fragmentation and embodied memory.

Reality and dream intertwine as suppressed experience seeks form. What remains “in the throat” — unspoken, internalized, inherited — gradually manifests through image, sound and physical presence.

The courtyard transforms into the fictional village of “Laimos,” inviting the audience to move through an immersive terrain of visual and sonic fragments — a space where private trauma meets collective silence.
