From October 10 until 13 EX-MÊKH took part in Platforms Project 2024 in Athens (GR). We installed an improvised beach under the name on MÊKH-beach in our booth using firm carton. During the fair we put memories, recent observations and ideas in the waves and on the sand, as if they washed on the shore, ready to be taken back by the waves. We thought it might be a fitting image for the creative process as we perceive it.
Reversal of the Tide
On the last day of Platforms Project 2024 we organised Reversal of the Tide: we offered the works we put into the beach-scene to the public at reasonable prices. Earlier Ellen Rodenburg asked people to cut out their foot in carton and to decorate that foot. Some of those were also on sale. A number of people amongst whom Artemis Potamianou, director of the fair, gallery-owners, volunteers of the fair and parents of the kids who decorated their feet bought small works and took it with them.
