About Artist

George Aivalis

I was born and raised in Athens, but I feel like a citizen of the world. My first contact with photography was in 1990 with a used Nikkormat FT2. Then followed a photography school, during the darkroom era. However, I decided not to pursue photography professionally, but to have a loving relationship with it. Over the years, I have noticed that the process of photography sometimes becomes a vision and sometimes a pretext for searching. Through it, I explore the world, myself and my people.
