Fo̱nés (voices) is a group of visual artists and social scientists exploring the multiple ways in which sounds produced by living bodies are transformed into matter for thought and art making.
They explore ‘voice’ as a means through which social relationships are constituted and acquire meaning, but they are also interested in voice itself and not solely in ‘the messages’ it transmits or ‘the codes’ it uses. They investigate the materiality of voice as a sound phenomenon as well as its sensory and aesthetic qualities; its connection to and detachment from the body that produces it; the ways it is shaped through techniques and technologies; the ways it defines multiple socio-cultural and ‘natural’ environments.  They are looking into points of convergence and divergence deriving from institutional or other differences between art and social sciences. At the same time they develop networks of communication and collaboration with individuals, groups or institutions interested in similar matters or working in similar ways in Greece and elsewhere.
