This book was published for the Community Project Aigaleo City.

Community Projects is an initiative NEON established in 2014, with two such projects to be realized annually. Their aim is to implement contemporary art programs in Athenian neighbourhoods that rely on the participation of local inhabitants, independent groups and artists. These Community Projects form a living field of artistic activities in which artists give prominence, along with citizens, to issues that concern specific local communities. Αigaleo City is part of NEON’s program for 2014-2016.

Collage becomes the main tool to unfold the stories of intimacy within a very complex network of locals, artists and shared experiences. The inner part of the edition functions as the very constellation mapping these collaborations.
