Crossings is a four-channel video and sixteen-channel sound installation shot in metallurgy plants in Lavrion and Skouries, Greece, as well as in refugee camps in Lesbos and Piraeus. It is a documentary work that engages with the social dimensions and historical continuities of the region’s economic and civil wars.
The video ‘Passing Drama’ reflects the acoustic image of Melitopoulos' family history. It tells the refugee story of her Greek family that came across three generations as a fragmentary and fairy-tale-like image. Flight as the fundamental motif of the story became the videographic theme of narrative, history and memory.
This video art piece creates a collage of the people, mechanisms, and advertisements in the transfer station of an underground train.
