Further inspired by the last communities of traditional mourners on the Mani Peninsula of Greece as the doyennes of a dying tradition, the work incorporates a new kind of subjectivity, intimacy, and criticism, exploring mortuary rituals as a way of humans adapting to death. In Greece, the so-called Moirologia (moira translating as ‘fate’ and logos as ‘speech’), can be traced to the choirs of Greek tragedies, in which the principal singer would begin the mourning and the chorus would follow. Archeological evidence, present clearly that the tradition goes back to the early Protogeometric period (11th BCE) of the Iron Age and possibly beyond.
