George Tatakis

My Greece Atlas grows from George Tatakis’s long-term photographic fieldwork across Greece. Its first layers extend the worlds of Ethos, centred on ritual and communal tradition, and Caryatis, centred on regional dress, identity and cultural continuity.

The atlas carries that work into a navigable form — connecting photography with time, geography and context rather than presenting images as an isolated portfolio.
