About the series: Shadow in Greece: Greece has changed. You can spot the difference in every step, street and face. People creep through the cities like shadows – heads down, stiff shoulders, sealed lips. Unemployment spreads doubts and fears and fuels insecurity and crime. While the stock market falls, suicides are on a steady rise. More people sleep on the streets, the stars form their blankets. Even more people dive into dumpsters in search of food. Despite their lives sharing similar paths, they still feel alone.
About the Photographer: Enri Canaj, b. 1980, Albania, spent his early childhood in Tirana, Albania, and moved with his family to Greece, immediately after the opening of the borders in 1991. Since 2008, he has been a freelance photographer for major publications such as Time Magazine Lightbox and Newsweek. A sample of his work has been exhibited at the Cultural Foundation of the National Bank of Greece in Athens and Salonica, Bilgi Santral in Istanbul, and the European Parliament in Brussels. His work is recently published on Burn Magazine, Foto8 Magazine London.
