SHORTLISTED @ Dummy Award 2025
April 6, 2025Under Pressure is shortlisted of the Dummy Award 2025 and I am extremely happy about it!!! 50 out of 395 photobook dummies have been selected to travel around the world! Hoping the book finds its way to the press soon📚
The book reflects on the geopolitics of ecology today following the history of oil and gas in Albania and Greece through contemporary photography, archival material and text. Structured as a drama/play (with acts instead of chapters), it also reflects on issues that arise when dealing with the representation of facts and history. Under Pressure concludes with a conversation with David Campany around the particular nature of this work, the experimental nature of the photobook as a medium itself and the current challenges and state of photojournalism/documentary.
