Good news lately: I have recently won the first prize of the LSE Annual Fund Photography Competition, which this year was part of the LSE Research Festival. The topic was asking to convey one’s research in a visually compelling photograph.My winning image was taken during the pre-election campaign of the communist party in Athens, Greece, in May 2012
, and it is related to my research interest in political party framing, and popular reception of the economic crisis in Greece since 2010.
Eight of my images from the series on the Economic Crisis in Athens will be presented in the Main Exhibition Program of the Athens Photo Festival that starts the 19th of October(here). This year’s topic is the intersection between Art and Documentary.
