On Vis, the most remote of Croatia’s Dalmatian islands, Komiža stands as a town shaped by both sea and history. Once a thriving hub of fishing and canning factories, it has since been transformed by depopulation and the rise of tourism. In its narrow stone alleys and in the hands of artisans like Gigi—keeper of objects, stories, and traditions—the island’s fragile balance becomes visible. This gallery traces the contrasts between past and present, resilience and change, authenticity and the pressures of a global tourism economy.
