The Festival that connects the Aegean landscape and nature with Audiovisual Arts, Little Islands Festival (LIF) is addressing an open call towards all artistic communities experimenting with hybrid artistic practices at the boundaries of the performing and digital arts.

LIF 2022’s new open call through the theme “Communality” places artistic creation at the core of Community to trace the meanings and representations of community life in space, place and time. Drawing on contemporary art and digital media, the artists are invited to create, inspired by community practices of coexistence with the environment, collective archetypes, collective wisdom and memory, thus highlighting unseen histories of communities in Greece and the world at large.

  • AV Performances,
  • Music | VJs,
  • Interactive Installations,
  • Video Art | Animation | Silent Films with live soundscapes,
  • Virtual Reality,
  • 3D Projection Mapping –suggested location is the cycladic abandoned house that dominates the square of the settlement
