Poster Inspiration:

All the catastrophes the earth is facing due to climate change, hinder ancient traditions from continuing. History, as we all know, seems to force valuable cultural practices to be framed as memories. “Our Common(s) Story”, collects the practices and accounts of various custodians of the land across generations, proving that the cultural landscapes of the Mediterranean are here to stay. The inspiring main characters jump out of history’s timeless frame and connect us to the liminal and surreal spaces of the past and future. Despite all odds, in the Mediterranean; there is so much life and hope for change and transformation…the journey will go on.
