A briefing of the situation in student dorms
In 2022, Ministry Of Education along with NTUA and other sectors decided to close the student dorms, in order to renovate them. That's something that is being told for almost a decade to people that live there. People who lived in a building without heat, without even water at some point and in general in bad conditions. And when these people demanded the accomplishment of their neccessities, everyone in charge closed the door at them. Now those in charge are using these problems, along with the crime rate that is blooming in the area, to renovate the dorms and throw away the people that live there without any measures for them. They are forced to go to rent, or their family houses (no one cares if these houses are in the city or even in Greece, as there's an amount of migrants living there) or they'll end up homeless, because as it is stated there's no place yet that is ready for them to resident after they leave the building. A pure act of hostile gentrification.
This building is also the home of STUΔIO. And like everyone who's left in the building (most of the residents have already left), we are packing up, so we can continue our journey as a collective somewhere else.
Therefore we had a farewell show in STUΔIO's reahearsal space with our dear friends Tzitzifrikia.
And it was intense.
