AN INDEPENDENT VIEW OF THE ISLANDCulture · Desire · Identity · Relationships
An island is also made of encounters: the places people find, the identities they express and the relationships they build. After Dark reads historical sources alongside contemporary accounts of desire, culture and nights out.
Queer Culture & Communities
What can one travel account tell us about Mykonos? A close reading of Richard Piro’s text in Vector, published in March 1973, alongside period evidence and archival photographs.
Nights & Parties
An analysis of XLSIOR’s advertised 2025 programme and venue geography. The catalogue reveals a proposed itinerary; it does not establish that every announced event took place.
Dating & Relationships
A recent account follows two men from a private terrace to Elia, town and a festival night. What their choices reveal about intimacy is more interesting than a list of places to go.
