ART SH GR “WAY OUT”- Anna Vekiari, Greece, 2024, 4’10”

Synopsis: You wake up in a body that is not yours. It seems to suit you.

You like it but it is not yours.

You wake up in a world without continuity and flow and nothing seems to be simple. You are looking for a way out of normality. WAY OUT is a reference to the normative standards of the body, to the ideal body image that man has imposed on man and to the obstacles it creates. When the body is trapped within such a restrictive standard, it loses touch with itself and its authenticity. The natural flow and personal expression are altered, creating tensions and obstacles.
