Spiros Loukopoulos
“A New Beginning”
A NEW BEGINNING presents classic photography with a fresh twist, embracing the freedom to explore and question our surroundings.
The photographic approach is as straightforward as keen observation and openness to the surrounding environment, yet is nuanced by personal expression. Each new experience becomes a playground for exploration, offering fresh perspectives to ponder and question. The ever-changing landscapes and situations are not just subjects to capture, but lessons to absorb and learn from.
A NEW BEGINNING
Unveiling Layers: A Glimpse into the Infinite
The photographer finds humor and the macabre in the everyday, capturing life’s essence in its simplest form. They believe in observing what’s often overlooked—those ‘in-between worlds’ that exist within the obvious but offer deeper insights. For them, photography is akin to biology—a way to delve into the unseen beauty of life’s essence.
A NEW BEGINNING focuses on the ethereal and spiritual aspects of life and aims to remain a lifelong quest for understanding and expression.
