Minas Stratigos (Greece)

Urban Series VI; A Look at a Bridge I; Al Wahda Arches I

Minas Stratigos has lived in Qatar for 13 years. He is currently Head of Project Management Office and Festivals Deputy Managing Director at the Doha Film Institute. He has received numerous honours, including first place in the Zebra Awards for black and white photography.

Minas uses a repertoire of different capturing techniques, filters and long exposures to simplify the visual forms of his architectural subjects. The result is an emphasis on the sculptural qualities and graphic lines of the structures, which make for engaging black and white studies of surface and shadow.
