Most of my photographs are romantic. Art directors tell me that. I do not like to show the so-called dirty part. I will show dirty, but in my way that will bring something more peaceful. It will not honk. Here's an example - I made a report about prostitutes and brothels that are near Metaksurgio and Keramikos. I saw them again from another, more peaceful point of view. From the perspective of “why she is doing this”, not criticizing “see what she is doing!” There is no criticism in of my photos. Even if I show breasts, they are soft. Because everyone has problems. Who am I to judge them? I can be judged too.
I AM ASHAMED TO SHOOT OTHER PEOPLE’S MISERY
I am ashamed to shoot the misfortune of others. I saw hungry and poor people on the streets when I was in China. I was embarrassed to photograph people without teeth only to make a nice photo. It's a bit like a military report. Personally, I have not gone to a war, but many photographers go. I am taking off my hat to them. In this case, the very dynamics of the topic is such that you yourself would make wonderful pictures if you were there with a camera. Whenever you shoot a child with no hand or feet you will make a good photo. It is the same wirh a beautiful sunset. If you go to Santorini to photograph the sunset of Ia for example. There are views and issues that are so exciting, magical and powerful themselves that everyone can make good photos. Also, if you're in space and should take a picture of what you see, you yourself will make it. The only difference is that you probably would put the planet in the center. Most people put the topic in the center. I would put the planet on the left, the right or just a slice of it.
IF I WAS NOT PHOTOGRAPHER
I wanted to become a dancer when I was a child. I played sports gymnastics. But my parents said “get a degree first and then do whatever you want.” I like the legal profession and forensics. And soccer, of course. I can be a referee, but unfortunately there are no women referees.
SUMMER MEANS GREECE
Summer is always equal to Greece. Whatever trips I plan they are always for the Christmas period. Summer is for Greece. Favorite island? Our islands are so beautiful that I can not choose one. But I'm not fond of the tourist islands. Last year we went to Patmos, Lipsi and the region. It was magic. Beach, moon, fish ... It was great. I like the islands Serifos, Sikinos, Kimolos. I love the sea.
PLANS
My recent plans are related to recreation. I am waiting for August to go somewhere. In regard to the work, as I said before, I am working on two projects - bridges and vehicles. I will make an exhibition at some point. I want to be healthy and okay so I can work. To do the things that I like and inspire me. And to have friends around me.
