Eleni Vlachos peers through a graffitied hole in a wall, into the occupied territory of Northern Cyprus. A buffer zone under the control of the United Nations stretches between Northern Cyprus and the rest of the island and divides Nicosia, the island’s largest city and capital of both states. The 1974 coup d’état, an attempt to annex the island to Greece, was followed by the Turkish invasion of Cyprus. Photo courtesy of Eleftherios Kostans.
