In modern history, Eleusis gathered many different populations, who migrated to this place to find work, while transferring customs and traditions. A human mosaic was thus created that constitutes an important part of the city’s modern identity.

At the Official Opening Ceremony of the 2023 Eleusis Cultural Capital of Europe, on February 4, 2023, these different communities of Elefsina will cross like rivers through the urban fabric of the city to join in a big dance that flows into the port. This procession, entitled the Eleusinian Movement, symbolically represents the participation of the citizens of Eleusis in the Opening Ceremony, in order to welcome visitors to the city.

As an echo of this iconic procession, but also as a commemoration of the Reserves project (2018), by the same artists and always in the context of 2023 Eleusis, an art exhibition-installation inside three containers will be set up on the beach front, with video-documents and creative citation of evidence. The aim is to highlight once again the strong imprint of the labor movement in Eleusis.

The thematic axis People | Society focuses on inclusion, the way that European society is shaped and, the ways in which we interact with each other, through the three themes/notions “Europe of Citizens”, “Europe, Daughter of Phoenix” and “Human Mysteries”.
