"The Light That Blinds Us" was created from the need to express my connection to a place that has shaped a significant part of my life: Amorgos, an island in the Cyclades. The project approaches the subject from two perspectives: my personal experience and the daily life of its inhabitants. The common thread between these two is the deep love for the land. At the same time, my work focuses on the interaction between the island's physical geography and its human geography, highlighting the dynamic relationship between nature and people. The isolation that the inhabitants experience for most of the year, away from the bustle of tourism,creates a sense of time travel during the quieter months. This photographic series tells a story through landscapes, symbols, and moments that challenge the stereotypical images of the island, connecting them with the island's ethnographic character. Through evocative and allegorical landscapes, I document a deeply personal impression of the place that "raised" me. At the same time, the portraits of the island's people reveal its soul, the living core of its history. The light, which plays a central role in Cycladic landscape art, is used as a symbol and a key element of the work, highlighting Amorgos' uniqueness through the synthesis of personal experience with the collective memories and stories of the place.
