Sound Acts was a three-year research project and annual get-together, a showcase of projects that bring together performance art/gesture, sound/music and gender/body/identity. The work of eighty artists, performers and academics has been presented in three festivals. The project’s purpose has been twofold: on the one hand it has been an opportunity to establish connections between Greek practitioners/theoreticians and the international community and on the other a chance to bring the athenian audience in contact with work that is generally left outside of local sound art and music showcases.

Having been called "the festival that will make the average Greek mum shake in hysteria" by Vice magazine and a showcase "for open-minded people who question the boundaries between different arts" by Lifo, Sound Acts has been considered an important influence for the development of queer arts in Greece. In the years after the festival's appearance, local art institutions showed an interesting turn towards gender politics, feminism and the notion of 'queer', while a number of artists that premiered their work at Sound Acts would go on to collaborate with various art and culture bodies internationally. The third and last installment of Sound Acts was included at the Athens & Epidaurus Festival. The art fair documenta hosted in 2017 in Athens worked with SA collaborators and presented work that related to the material previously shown in Sound Acts (Jani Christou's Epicycle, Paul Preciado's public programme including AMOQA/Fytini/SA members, the work "Sound Acts in Victoria Square" etc).

The 2015 and 2016 events were hosted at KET & AMOQA
​The 2017 event was hosted and supported by Athens & Epidaurus Festival

In the Acts menus, you can find info about the presentations/performances of each of the participants, as well as photographic and video material.
