A survey of Greek costumes in the 21st century ​ This work is the evolvement of ETHOS (previous project on local traditional events) and the photographer himself and focuses on female traditional costumes all over Greece. The images are no longer snapshots of non-posed subjects, but the photographer now takes control of the whole scene and direction.
