October 2025 - May 2026, Anafi, Greece

The program "Show Me Your Place" is a research and curatorial initiative by ASTRO collective under the auspices and production of the Anafi International Film Festival. From October 2025 to May 2026, the program invites four artists to work at four different time points throughout the year, using Anafi as both a personal and collective place. The title of the program comes from the folk saying "Show me your place, and I'll tell you who you are," whose origin in Greek tradition signifies the deep connection between the place where someone lives, or comes from, and their identity.


The program employs this phrase as a site-responsive methodology, designed by Raisa Desypri, and aims to invite temporary and permanent residents of the island  to reflect on place, memory, and belonging through storytelling and performative exchange. Through workshops, creative exchanges, and collaborations with the local community, the artists will invite locals to "show" them the island, not only as a place of residence or tourist destination, but as a territory of flows, transformations, and multiple identities.


The aim of the program is for the visiting artists and locals to co-design an "identity" for the island of Anafi that is multidimensional but also personal. The initiative will culminate in an interactive collective exhibition, created on the island, for the island, which will serve as a visual archive of the workshops and will act as a record of the network of local relationships, providing an archive available to present and future generations of residents.


A big thank you goes to the Athina I. Martinos Foundation, which supports the implementation of our program through the Bodossaki Foundation's "Support Points" fund.
