Living and traveling around the world for many years, photography has been by far the most appealing way for me to understand the landscapes I visit, to watch and interact with the people and to comprehend their ways and means of living.
I am genuinely interested in human presence in daily life, moving through time and in public spaces where secretive moments are often revealed as if they had never existed.
The site is a selection of moments that shaped my travel for many years and at the same time provided “a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone”.
I have participated in several group exhibitions and photo festivals and attended a series of workshops and portfolio reviews by renowned photographers in Greece and abroad, including Nikos Economopoulos, Panos Kasimis, Valerie Jardin and John Pack.
I now live permanently on Paros Island in the Cyclades. As an active member of the Paros Photo Club I am currently photographing local people in the Cyclades islands as an on-going documentary project to provide a deeper insight into their works and lives.
