DESCRIPTION
My photographs show my love of light, color and life
This collection of images is an observational study of the complexity of big cities. The objective of this project was to observe and present photographically the spirit of current society.
It's also an attempt to explore, identify my feelings and try to explain them through my imagery.

All taken in Athens, Greece.
AUTHOR
I'm a street and documentary photographer currently based in Athens, Greece, owner and founder of CUT and DRY Blogzine, and a member of the Photographic Circle Collective.

I hold a Business Administration and Marketing Degree.

For me, street photography is ultimately liberating because it is an expression of my need to look at things differently. I've always been drawn to the power of imagery as a way to express my own completely subjective interpretation of what I feel rather than I see.

I'm less interested in creating images the traditional way - as street photography is an art form without constrain - but I'm much concerned with the unexpected and unusual. And I enjoy giving my images a sense of purpose in an artistic way.

I have been awarded in several photography contests, including IPA~International Photography Awards, Paris Street Photo Awards, JMC Julia Margaret Cameron Award for Women Photographers Gala Awards, PX3 Prix de la Photographie de Paris and others.

Μy work has been published in Street Photography Magazine, Street Photographers, Eye-Photo Magazine, Eyeshot - Street Photography Magazine, Street Core Photography zine, The Pictorial-List Magazine to name just a few.

Featured in The Pictorial-List Magazine, Street Sweeper Magazine 2020, on 121Clicks 2020, Wonderzofphotography 2020, The Edge of Humanity 2019, Photographize 2019, Wonderzofphotography 2019, Photologio.gr 2019, Photographic Mercadillo 2018.

Artist's Statement:

I don't believe in imagination, I don't believe in documentation either. I believe in Art.

My interest in street photography maybe stems from my love of old movies and exploring. Having always lived in European cities my images reflect the urban everyday life.

My personal vision focuses on capturing something beyond the regular reality, the soul and the spirit of a city, an object or a trace left by humans that reveal something about life.
