Paramorfosis

  • Photographer
    Ioulia Ladogianni, Greece
  • Prize
    Honorable Mention

Six portraits clearly influenced by the Surrealist movement—specifically the work of Maya Deren and Dora Maar. The photographs seek to reveal the paradoxes of a woman's daily life, emphasizing experimentation and the contradictions between fantasy and reality. The black background—acting as a universal symbol within the woman's world (home, work, family)—balances the almost awkward distortion of the figure, transforming the final image into an experience with distinct conceptual aims that challenge preconceived, conventional roles.
