“You’re Gonna Love Me”
Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York. Summer 2022.

Analogue Photographs

In this series, I explore my ancestral connection to the Greek Islands, and its natural beauty. My grandfather's heritage from this region has instilled in me a deep-seated bond with its ancient culture and breathtaking, rugged landscape.

Each photograph is a Fine Art Giclee Print, printed on Hahnemuhle archival photo paper, and framed in a thick narural Maple wood gallery frame, with non-glare acrylic for less reflection. Available in 22x28, 16x20 and 11x14 sizes.

“Calm In The Storm”
Elizabeth Street Garden, New York. 2024-25.

Public green spaces in New York City are a rare and precious commodity, which is why the community’s outrage over the impending destruction of Elizabeth Street Garden for a new housing development is so profound. Despite alternative sites being suggested for the project, Mayor Adams remains resolute in his decision to proceed. This photographic series seeks to preserve and map the fleeting moments and memories of this cherished space before it is irrevocably lost. By positioning the images as if they were part of a verdant wall, the work aims to offer the viewer a similar sensation of being engulfed in the garden’s lush and calming greenery.
