Eva Voutsaki
Eva Voutsaki's statement: 
I walk through this limited time given to me, named life. And in this transitory period I try to enlighten all my fears, my emotions and desires.
My camera travels with me into this symbolic voyage of nocturnal light; from darkness to light and then back again.
The photographs: seascapes under the full moon, animals, lonely women and men- form an anecdote diary with spontaneous and accidental images that enable the viewer to travel smoothly and secretly into his own memories. The outer reality is transformed into a stream of dislocated and ambiguous images. I try to re-mythologize and re-invent myself.
Intuition is my only guide and the traces are always to be found within me, in my early memories, my dreams and nightmares
.

Joanna Lowry (MA in Photography course leader, University of Brighton, 2009):
'' Eva's eloquent dream-like pictures have been plucked, as if random, from the flow of events; she tracks them through the spaces of the everyday capturing glimpses of random beauty, sweet joy and haunting fear. Following the logic of the dream-work or the film they form temporary fragmentary narratives, that remain for a while, and then disappear, re-emerging in some other form-some further re-working of memory and time. These pictures do have the quality of hallucination: of events misremembered that remain in our imaginations like screen memories, disguising what might have been true. ''


Leiden International Festival (2014):
Eva's enigmatic images create short, mysterious narratives without beginning or end. But most of all they mesmerize the viewer into drifting away in one's own thoughts, dreams and fantasies.
