Popi Tsoukatou

I was born and still living in Athens.My belief is that the camera can see more than the eye.Through personal journeys in incompatible and conflicting professional areas, through suffering and experience, through friendships and betrayals, I discovered another way of personal expression and communication.The photographic lense. Not to catch the moment but rather to express feelings and innuendos. To depict the joy of life, the passion, the perpetual motion, the inner search,the dispute, the transition. Through the opacity of the image I make room for the imagination to run wild while I try to protect people from risks of overexposure. Each photo for me, is a unique life story. In 2014 I published my book People.World and in 2019 Leonidio through windows

I studied philosophy at the Kapodistrian University of Athens. I worked and flourished socially within the banking sector.Later, after having attended seminars in the Mass Media field in Birkbeck University of London I worked as a communication consulter in advertising agencies and in television.I took photography lessons in the Photography "Circle" of Plato Rivellis in Athens and at the International Center of Photography of New York.
