In this series of recorded encounters we speak with the participants of Onassis AiR to shed light on their artistic practices and needs, as well as to reflect on ways of being and working together. Today, I am very happy to welcome Orestis Athanasopoulos, an artist and filmmaker based in Paris. Orestis works on long term and participatory projects that look into informal cultural connections and the mechanisms of identity construction, often in relation to food production and consumption. Orestis is a participant of The School of Infinite Rehearsals Movement VII with a collective research focus on the notion of community economies. In this conversation, we take food as a starting point to discuss his filmic practice and research interest into the emergence of communities.
