Timalfi 2017 (Μου φαγες όλα τα δαχτυλίδια)
The Greek word Timafli (Τιμαλφή), means valuables.
The subtitle “Μou ‘fages Ola Ta Dahtilidia”, meaning “You ate (stole) all my rings”, is borrowed form a old pop song (rebetiko) from the 40s.
The performance explain the etymology of the word “Timalfi” and connect it with the Greek mythology.
On the island of Syros on the ground near the airport, a large female head was designed with stones, white lime and natural color to be visible on the landings and take-offs, which was a copy of an ancient mural with jewelry on the neck and ears. The jewelry was made from edible materials, 70 white boiled eggs like pearls and small red tomatoes.
The guests at the performance heard from the artist the analysis of the word valuables – “Timalfi”, the vanity and the meaning of greed and they were invited to eat the jewels (eggs and tomatoes) of this ephemeral work.
