About Artist
Vivian Kalomiri
I was born in Athens in 1977, and photography has shaped the way I see the world for as long as I can remember. My artistic path began at the Fine Arts Academy of Rome, where I immersed myself in scenography and the broader language of visual storytelling. Over time, my focus shifted toward photography, leading me to continue my studies at the Leica Academy of Athens, where I completed my training in 2000. Since then, I’ve been working as a professional photographer across various fields, while developing a personal body of work that moves between documentary and more conceptual approaches. Although I’m deeply rooted in documentary practice, I’m equally drawn to experimentation—often blending the two into what I consider conceptual documentary. Through this hybrid process, I explore narratives about contemporary human life, using both observation and constructed ideas to reveal emotional, social, and personal layers. My images aim to challenge perception, evoke feeling, and open space for reflection. I’m continually searching for new ways to expand my visual language and express the complexity of the world—and of my own experience—through photography.
