✨ George Tatakis has Pop Sonality!


 🇬🇷

☀️ Who are you? I'm George Tatakis, originally an Electrical Engineer hailing from Athens, Greece, who found a second calling as a photographer. I studied in Edinburgh as an engineer, and as far as photography goes, I am self-taught. I am 42 years old and I also like to play the piano, and I am a passionate cook. 

What do you do? In the realm of photography, I specialize in the captivating simplicity of black and white, drawing inspiration from Greek traditions. My projects, 'Ethos' and 'Caryatis,' delve into the rich tapestry of local traditions and women's dresses, respectively. Currently, I'm immersed in 'Chorōs,' a project experimenting with capturing rhythm and music's essence through still visual stimuli.

Influences and inspirations: I draw inspiration from iconic photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Costa Manos, and Josef Koudelka. Beyond photography, my creative fuel comes from diverse sources—music, art, and life experiences. However, nowadays, literature holds a special place in shaping my artistic perspective.

Estudié ingeniería en Edimburgo y, en lo que respecta a la fotografía, soy autodidacta. Tengo 42 años y también me gusta tocar el piano, y soy una cocinera apasionada.

¿Qué haces? En el ámbito de la fotografía, me especializo en la cautivadora simplicidad del blanco y negro, inspirándome en las tradiciones griegas. Mis proyectos, 'Ethos' y 'Caryatis', profundizan en el rico tapiz de las tradiciones locales y la vestimenta de las mujeres, respectivamente. Actualmente estoy inmerso en 'Chorōs', ​​un proyecto que experimenta con capturar el ritmo y la esencia de la música a través de estímulos visuales fijos.

Influencias e inspiraciones: me inspiro en fotógrafos icónicos como Henri Cartier-Bresson, Costa Manos y Josef Koudelka. Más allá de la fotografía, mi combustible creativo proviene de diversas fuentes: música, arte y experiencias de vida. Sin embargo, hoy en día, la literatura ocupa un lugar especial en la configuración de mi perspectiva artística.

 ✨ @ypatia_kornarou has Pop Sonality!  ✨ Pop Sonality: How do you feel when you see a great find for a photo? How does it make you feel to see what you know is a good motif for a photograph?  Ypatia Kornarou: Because of social media and the internet in general, photo viewing is a condition we have to deal with every day. In the “age of the image” the difficult thing is to discover qualitative “visual field” invested with an interesting narrative. When finally a photograph can and does contain the elements, the motif that will give it an interesting identity then the feeling is one of surprise and relief about the art of photography. The constant search for quality frames will always be the purpose and the reason for the development of a visual artist. ✨ Pop Sonality: ¿Cómo te sientes cuando ves un gran hallazgo para una foto? ¿Cómo te hace sentir ver lo que sabes que es un buen motivo para una fotografía? Ypatia Kornarou: Debido a las redes sociales e Internet en general,...
