Santorini Sunset, Greece.
Curator’s statement

Santorini holds a special place in my heart due to its incredible views and distinct local charm. The breathtaking vistas of the caldera, adorned with the iconic white-washed buildings and blue-domed churches, create a mesmerizing backdrop that captivates me every time. Moreover, the island's authentic atmosphere, with its narrow streets, traditional tavernas, and warm hospitality, offers a genuine local experience that makes me feel connected to the rich cultural heritage of Santorini.
