On the quiet coast of Nea Peramos, 36 km west of Athens, stands a derelict factory. Once known across Greece for producing linen under the brand Peiraiki-Patraiki—later Softex—it had been abandoned for decades, its facade lingering in memory as the backdrop of the legendary 1960s Greek film My Socialist Daughter, starring Aliki Vougiouklaki and Dimitris Papamichael.

In secrecy, over the course of two years, twenty street artists transformed this forgotten landmark into an immense open-air canvas. Working under the code name PERAMO, they created seventy murals across 4,000 sq.m. The event was whispered from person to person, shared only through private messages, and culminated in an exhibition that lasted no more than a single weekend—before the building returned to its ghostly silence.

More than an archive of ephemeral art, PERAMO is a testament to collective imagination—a fleeting yet powerful moment at the crossroads of memory, cinema, resistance, and contemporary art.
