Project “anti gone2” is a performance that explores the adversities Greek contemporary women face in their struggle to remain in their motherland during a period of deep financial and humanitarian crisis. Their fight to remain and their resilience needed to support their choice echoes the fight and resilience displayed by the tragic heroine Antigone. Their journey is one of personal discovery . It entails an inward quest, the coming of age: a presses that requires freeing herself of the restrictions imposed by her “gender” in order to discover the true identity. It is a journey from the present to the past, to a logical space where Antigone stand still. So renounces her House and city and stands into the light, a radiant everlasting presence that no power on earth can shake. She is never gone .
