Isola: An Island Song in Photographs, Poems, and Music
Isola reflects on the idea of the island as an existential condition. The images were photographed at the opposite ends of Europe, in the Western Isles of Scotland and the islands of the Northern Aegean, acknowledging the fact that my life is defined, respectively, by my family origins in the Greek island of Chios and the Scottish island of Arran, where I now live. In the context of my own diasporic heritage, Isola is a reflection in photographs, texts, and music on isolation and paradoxical connection.
