3. Ioanna Sakellaraki
After her father’s death, photographer Ioanna Sakellaraki travelled back to her home country, Greece, to the Mani peninsula, looking for representations of mourning. In The truth is in the soil, an abstract story inspired by Greek laments, she questions the notions of absence, presence and fiction facing a mysterious entity called Death.
