Little Islands Festival
Open Call for Artists
Little Islands Festival is a festival for people, places, ideas and images.
It is a celebration of audiovisual arts taking place every year in a different small island around Greece. In 2019, the second edition of the festival begins from Amorgos in July before returning to its base, the special Sikinos for the summer’s closing.
Through the festival, we seek to act as a link between little islands and modern art and technology, to support artists both from the local community and every other place, and to highlight the intangible cultural heritage, the beauty and the power of every small community all around the world, and more specifically of the islands.
In collaboration with artists experimenting with the audiovisual arts, we support the creative community, encourage the exchange of ideas and knowledge, and actively support the interaction between place, artist and visitor. At the same time, through educational workshops and open talks, we aim at educating children and adolescents living on small islands and raising the awareness of the local community on issues of art and technology.
The festival is open to all ages and hosts video art, performances, short films, documentaries, soundscapes and animations. Little Islands Festival is ultimately a modern, collective feast for the eyes that recreates the public space and creates new landscapes in old places.
