Archipelago Network (A–N) is a research and documentation initiative dedicated to audiovisual heritage and knowledge production in the Cyclades islands of the Aegean Sea. Since its founding in 2019, A–N takes up the Cyclades as a living laboratory, addressing social and environmental challenges specific to island communities through trans-local partnerships and cultural action.
At a time when climate change, overtourism and unregulated development threaten the Cyclades’ unique cultural identity and biodiversity, A–N works to protect and promote the resilience of these rural communities through targeted thematic projects.
Our comprehensive approach includes field research, archival preservation, residencies, publications, online projects, and public programs, with the aim of catalyzing partnerships throughout the area and producing an open-access digital repository for traditional knowledge and regional memory.
