“My Journey Through Your Memories”: A Queer Memory Archive in Cyprus by Alessandro Cazzola

Italian researcher and artist Alessandro Cazzola is presenting his work “My Journey Through Your Memories - Collecting Queer Memories from Cyprus” in Cyprus. The project is an open research process that maps fragments of contemporary queer experience on the island, aiming to empower communities and create inclusive forms of creativity. The research began from a personal need to understand his connection with Cyprus and evolved into a collection of stories and materials reflecting the experiences of queer communities. Cazzola asked participants to share a memory from their queer experience in Cyprus, creating a deeper exploration of thoughts and feelings.
