"I MAKE PHOTOGRAPHS LIKE A BLIND WOMAN,
WITH MY SUB - CONSCIOUSNESS AS MY GUIDE AND MY DREAMS".
My work is surreal. Symbolizations, implications, and disguised up-drawings of memories, dominate. I have been affected by hyper-realism and the Dada movement. Lately I have been experimenting with mix-media techniques.Μy inspiration comes from un-satisfaction. From love. From small, apparently indifferent details which will turn into the whole universe of the artist if you isolate each of them…From every barely noticeable thing. Taste, sound, feeling, crash and crumble of everyday people. From memories.
Photography is a way of my existence, a kind of love that does not wear out as time goes by and my camera is my eternal mistress.
The only thing that I’m sure about is that I don’t want to give answers, but I want to create questions.
For
me, capturing a moment should create doubts. Maybe I want to do a social statement.
Sometimes, I want to express all the feelings that I hide. Sometimes I want to make the viewers question themselves, provoke or disturb them.
Even give them some negative feelings because that is a way of creating a connection with the picture you have taken.
