As part of its engagement with publications, the written word, language, and translation, Enterprise Projects presents On the Tip of the Tongue.
The project’s environment is shaped by three elements, the audio documentation of a conversation around art publications in Greece, which took place in December 2020 between Margarita Athanasiou, Helena Papadopoulos, Theofilos Tramboulis, Evita Tsokanta, and Despina Zefkili; the site-specific sculptural installation by Kostas Roussakis, which creates space and negotiates the experience of scale, while allowing the audience to inhabit it; and Marina Miliou-Theocharaki’s sound installation Oral Fixation (2021), which approaches voice, speech, and their sensorial traces.
On the Tip of the Tongue is a platform fostering the coexistence of different tools, forms, and approaches that relate to the written and spoken word, what comes before it, and its transmutations. The recorded conversation between Margarita Athanasiou, Helena Papadopoulos, Theofilos Tramboulis, Evita Tsokanta, and Despina Zefkili is in Greek, it lasts 1 hour and 15 min., and it will be starting at 16:00, 17:30 and 18:45.
Due to the regulations that pertain to Covid-19 prevention, only ten people are allowed in the space simultaneously. Wearing face masks and maintaining the appropriate distance are mandatory.
