Workshop on photobooks with Moritz Neumüller

Last week I found my self in Athens at Onassis Foundation (Στέγη Γραμμάτων και Τεχνών), where I followed the workshop of Moritz Neumüller about photobooks, (self-)publishing and visual narratives.

We also had a look at many photobooks that were published this year and took a lot inspiration by looking through them. Moritz was very friendly and helpful and we had interesting conversations about the art world today, the boom of the photobook, …

New film: 9 known stories

The short film “9 known stories” is about stories that mostly have a picture frame as their starting point. Through motion and sound, they each develop into a narrative within a strict 30-second time limit. Inspired by Japanese haiku poetry, the stories constitute fragments of time which derive from everyday details that are usually overlooked. These stories become intertwined under a loose regime, creating a holistic and suggestive atmosphere. PS: I will make a trailer…soon! In the mean time you can see some of the photos at Cue productions with Yanis Mavridis taking care of the sound of it! Cross …

Last month I had a photo shoot of the music band “The Fog Ensemble” at my hometown, Thessaloniki, for their new album “Throbs”.

You can listen to their song “Lighthouse” from their album “Throbs” which is coming out by Inner Ear Records on the …
