In a world falling apart, where dead matter becomes food again, time seems to be the only thing that endures. Drawing on memories of growing up in the countryside, Efthimios Moschopoulos explores the formation of a queer body in a place with no language for its existence. Through fragmented rituals moving between past and present, individual and collective experience, the work traces the ecstatic irrationality of adolescence. Blending absurdity with rawness, FÁE emerges as a queer survival manual shaped by vulnerability, tenderness, and transformation.
Born on the island of Kefalonia, Efthimios Moschopoulos is a Greek dancer currently based in Athens. He studied dance at the Greek National School of Dance (KSOT, 2014) and at the Faculty of Philosophy, Pedagogy, and Psychology of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (2010).
He works in Greece and internationally as a dancer, performer, and creator. In his work, he creates hybrid environments where experience, narrative, and digital media coexist in constant transformation. Through performative practices, he develops staged that unfold as experiential worlds, generating affective and atmospheric conditions.
He has collaborated with artists including Euripides Laskaridis, Christos Papadopoulos, Armin Hokmi, Romeo Castellucci, Ginevra Panzetti & Enrico Ticconi, Sofia Mavragani, Artemis Lampiri, Xenia Koghilaki, and Antonis Foniadakis, as well as Teo Triantafyllidis, Eva Papamargariti, Pierre Bal-Blanc, and Cally Spooner partisipating at international festivals and institutions such as Julidans (Netherlands), Lyon Dance Biennale (France), Tanz im August / Tanzfabrik (Germany), Buenos Aires International Festival (Argentina), Festival TransAmériques (Canada), SIDance (South Korea), Sztuki Museum (Poland), Frac MÉCA (Bordeaux), and Palais de Tokyo (Paris), among others.
His work has been presented at Onassis Stegi (Athens), where his latest piece “FÁE” premiered in 2026. He has worked as a stage movement director for theatre productions. In 2020, he was awarded the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Fellowship by ARTWORKS.
Efthimios Moschopoulos was an Onassis AiR Fellow through the Dramaturgy Fellowship (2024–25) and is part of the Onassis AiR Grand Luxe Network (2025–26).
