Athens teems with monumental ghosts and tourists. These multiple exposure images were captured on medium format film in the hour before sunrise during the period of curfews and lockdowns associated with the coronavrus pandemic. At that time the qualities of the air and the light noticeably changed making the sunrise over the stoic monumental ghosts seem slower, lengthened and more subtle.
The images above represent the gelatin silver edition. The first of the following images represents the entire injket edition individually framed and installed in a strip format measuring 1000 x 100 cm. Following that are details of the gelatin silver edition.
