- I struggled only, not to make compromises and weaken my work! - You have to pay if you want to do what you think you can do best and your hart is in it. Then you pay a price. You get less money really. If you have a job you have a security, and I never thought about that when I was young.

GREECE, Crete, Itanos beach. August 2012. (Itanos, an ancient coastal site in Eastern Crete, is located close to the unique in Europe Vai Palm Forest. Was founded in prehistoric times and was one of the strongest cities in Crete, especially during the Hellenistic and Greco-Roman times. The name comes from its founder the Phoenician "Itanos". The Minoan settlement was called Utana. Herodotus recorded that the settlers from Thera (modern Santorini) who founded Cyrene in Libya owed their knowledge of the coast to an Itanian trader named Corobios.) |

My Story (...so far!)
Γονείς κατά της Τέχνης
"Χρησιμοποιώντας τις αντιδράσεις των γονιών όταν ανακαλύπτουν ότι το παιδί τους παίρνει ναρκωτικά, μια σχολή καλών τεχνών δημιουργεί μια έξυπνη παρωδία"
(http://www.doctv.gr/page.aspx?itemID=SPG3762)
Γονείς κατά της Τέχνης
"Χρησιμοποιώντας τις αντιδράσεις των γονιών όταν ανακαλύπτουν ότι το παιδί τους παίρνει ναρκωτικά, μια σχολή καλών τεχνών δημιουργεί μια έξυπνη παρωδία"
(http://www.doctv.gr/page.aspx?itemID=SPG3762)
- Την πρώτη φορά, τελειώνοντας το λύκειο στα 18, που
είπα στους γονείς μου ότι θέλω να γίνω ηθοποιός η μάνα μου έπαθε κρίση και
φώναζε ενώ ο πατέρας μου σαν πιο ψύχραιμος πλακώθηκε στις μπουνιές μαζί
μου. Έτσι συνέχισα να το κάνω "ημι παράνομη" χρήση σε
ερασιτεχνικές ομάδες.
- Τη δεύτερη φορά, στα 24, που δήλωσα στο μηχανογραφικό,
πρώτα, όλη τη Σ.Γ.Τ.Κ.Σ. -εφαρμοσμένη τέχνη. Όταν πέρασα Φωτογραφία, ο
πατέρας μου με ρώτησε "Και σου αρέσει τώρα αυτό;" ενώ η μάνα μου
σαν πιο ψύχραιμη του έλεγε ότι θα μου ανοίξουν φωτογραφείο (Γάμοι,
Βαπτίσεις, ...). Πάντως λεφτά μου έδιναν. Για 4-5 χρόνια ζούσα σε μια
νιρβάνα. Νόμιζα ότι θα με εντρυφούσαν στα άγρια μυστικά της Τέχνης, αλλά
οι περισσότεροι ήταν δημόσιοι υπάλληλοι. Πιο πολύ σαν φάρμα των ζώων
έμοιαζε. ΒΕΒΑΙΑ όπως όλα τα καλά τα ανακαλύπτεις μόνος σου, με καμιά
10/αριά φίλους που ψάχνονται και 3-4 πεφωτισμένους δασκάλους. Ότι έμαθα
και ότι είμαι το χρωστάω σε αυτά τα 15 άτομα !! ΑΞΙΖΕ ΛΟΙΠΟΝ ΣΙΓΟΥΡΑ ΤΟΝ
ΚΟΠΟ !!

"Η ΜΟΝΑΞΙΑ ΤΟΥ ΣΚΟΤΕΙΝΟΥ ΘΑΛΑΜΟΥ"
(Ή Το Τρισυπόστατο Του Φωτογράφου στην Ψηφιακή Εποχή)
(Ξεκίνησα ένα Σαββατιάτικο πρωινό να διαβάσω/δω το φωτογραφικό άλμπουμ του Θανάση Lomef Ζαχαρόπουλου 11x11. Μόλις διάβασα μονάχα την πρώτη πρόταση από την εισαγωγή, μια έκρηξη πλημύρισε όμορφα μέσα μου και αμέσως άρχισα να γράφω αυτή τη σκέψη, αυτή την ιδέα: "Η ΜΟΝΑΞΙΑ ΤΟΥ ΣΚΟΤΕΙΝΟΥ ΘΑΛΑΜΟΥ ή Το Τρισυπόστατο Του Φωτογράφου στην Ψηφιακή Εποχή"
"While technology was facilitating the escape of painters from their studios into the brilliant sunlight, early photographers remained sinister lonely alchemists sitting quietly in darkened rooms… " by Anurag Jain).
Τι απέγινε η δημιουργική μοναξιά του φωτογράφου στην ψηφιακή εποχή; Τι απέγινε η μοναξιά του σκοτεινού θαλάμου; Τι απέγινε η σχεδόν ψυχαναλυτική, ασκητική πολλές φορές επαφή του φωτογράφου με τον εαυτό του και το έργο του. Αυτή η ταυτόχρονη αποκλειστική επικοινωνία τριών σημείων. Των τριών "παράλληλων κόσμων" που ζουν μέσα στο φωτογράφο και μόνο σε αυτόν από όλες τις άλλες κατηγορίες καλλιτεχνών. Του Φωτογράφου, του Εαυτού του και του Έργου του.
