When the hawk comes
The presentation of video art “When the hawk comes” created by two artists Lilia Li-Mi-Yan and Katherina Sadovsky as a part of Limassol Art Walks.
The short video tells a sad, poetic story about the world today. The plot and melody of an Armenian lullaby are taken as a starting point, where a mother tries to calm her son by offering to make a symbolic choice of a destiny bird. His predictable choice is a warlike hawk.
Nineteen women of different ages wander in a string through the endless desert, re-mastering or forever saying goodbye to the space reminiscent of the fields of past battles. The horrors of war are resolutely put out of the brackets of this world without men. It is a gynaeceum, majestic, beautiful and frightening.

Limassol Art Walks
Limassol Art Walks is back for its highly anticipated fourth edition, taking place from October 31 to November 2, 2025. For three days, the historic centre of Limassol will come alive with a vibrant programme of exhibitions, screenings, performances, open studios, and site-specific projects.
This year, 23 artist-run spaces, institutions, galleries, and pop-up initiatives will simultaneously open their doors, inviting the public to explore the city’s artistic pulse at their own pace. Visitors are encouraged to create their own routes, wander through Limassol’s streets, and discover the depth and diversity of its contemporary art scene.
The 2025 edition is organized in collaboration with the Art Explora Festival, an itinerant festival presented by the international organisation Art Explora across fifteen Mediterranean countries. In Limassol, the festival is curated and organised by The Island Club, further enriching the programme and offering the public the opportunity to engage with a broader spectrum of artists and cultural spaces. This collaboration also highlights Limassol’s role on the international art map, showcasing the city’s dynamic creative community to a wider audience.
Founded by Alexandros Diogenous, Christodoulos Panayiotou, and Tasos Stylianou, Limassol Art Walks was established to strengthen collaboration and foster synergy within Limassol’s cultural ecosystem.
