Athens, 14 April – 17 May 2025

Literature House Bookshop

The Fresco – the first phase of the project – took place between 14 April and 17 May 2025 in Athens, on the terrace of the bookshop Literature House in the neighbourhood of Kypseli.

Echoing the kneading of the mortar, participants reflected on the act of kneading and let themselves to be kneaded within the new Athenian milieu. Special attention was given to the techniques, tools, and materials involved – their stories and methods of production. The primary materials used are lime from the Codlea Lime Factory and pigments from the Société des Ocres de France.
