BASIL KATZOPOULOS ELECTRA SERIES
This work is about a photographic series, which explores the boundaries between the staged and the document in photographic area. More specifically, this project deals with two different areas and depicts them through the art practice in order to show how both can work together. This combination between the context about social issues and the narrative storytelling is led by my personal concern on social facts and my own experiences with marginal people. This particular photographic work, based on the life of a transsexual and her pimp. Both of them are part of my personal experiences because their activities are taking place around the neighbourhood I grew up (at West side of Thessalonica in Greece) |
