Temenos 2022

Abstract

Once while speaking with art students in a class at the Vienna art academy, I listened to their fears for their future and their questions about how to continue, frequently mentioning their parents’ concern; and I thought how helpful it would be if they could experience the nature of the Peloponnese and the imaginative freedom that I associated to filmmaking and Greece. I continue to hope that the Temenos screenings might give a certain number of individuals an experience of freedom that comes from a temporary removal from one’s own environment and immersion in the different scale of time that Markopoulos’s Eniaios provides.
