Zoe Rapti

My name is Zoe Rapti. I am 22 years old. I am an undergraduate in my third year of studies in School of English at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece. I decided to get involved with this project because of its title. I have always been interested in observing the way cities change, especially the city I live in, as well as people’s way of life in them. Though, I never thought that we would get involved in so many artistic activities, I found this challenge very entertaining.

Silent Protest - Σιωπηλή διαμαρτυρία

 

This video works as a protest narrative. What is interesting about it is that it is written from the garbage point of you (if one can claim that they have one). This is what makes the protest effective. It's the garbage now that gain a voice so as to comment on people's insensitivity towards their urban space and others. Something that has no value any more can reflect back on people's ignorance and selfishness as to the way they treat their surrounding city environment.
