Talisman of the Earth
Social Engaged Workshop/ In the context of the yearlong Programme: Show me your place, Anafi 2025-2026
The children of Anafi are invited on a creative journey around the island, through walks, observation of nature, play, and storytelling. Together we collected small objects and natural elements that captured our attention. We explored the concept of the talismant, both as an object of protection and as a means of artistic storytelling.
Using the materials we gathered, along with natural binding elements, the children created individual or group of talisman for Anafi. We learned how these connect with memories, emotions, and our imagination. We gifted these talismna back to the island.
