about
My name is Eftychia Kazouka and I am a photographer.
I took my first picture, with my family’s telemetric camera, when I was 5 years old. Never stopped since (taking pictures, I mean…)
“From the eye to the heart to the camera”
Photography is, etymologically, the writing of the light. For decades now, I “write” my life’s story with light… and shadows, mostly in black & white.
Photography is about seeing instead of just looking… it’s about patience… it’s about love…
I studied photography and cinematography in my home country, Greece, and at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Since 2000 I live and work in Paris.
Black & white photography is my preferred means of expression. Architecture, hidden scenes of daily life, details of the ordinary are my favorite subjects.
In 2017, I started associating my passion for photography with my love of nature in what I call « a photographer’s approach to landscape design« . The observation of nature, through proxygraphy & macrophotography, and in black & white, as an inspiration for the creation of gardens adopting organic shapes, volumes & expositions. The absence of colour makes it easier to distinguish these shapes & forms. The deep black, the dazzling white, the distinct shades, create fascinating plays of scale, texture and depth. Through the lens, in each flower an infinite landscape emerges.
All pictures are one-shots; no post editing.
