In this episode, I am joined by the lovely Leandros as we discuss how being separated from your heritage forces you to find out who you really are. Leandros tells me how his art is helping him affirm his Cypriot identity, why Haringey Cypriots are the most authentic, reimagining ancient history and mythology with queer Aphrodite, and how his very own Aphrodite is a nod to every iconic Cypriot woman through the ages.
