Topheth

Topheth, photographer Yiannis Theodoropoulos’s first book, is about the loneliness of objects, the memory of mosaic floors, the allure of bed sheets and of creases. It is also about the loss of love, the notion of sacrifice and (the process of) victimization, the search for a coherent subjectivity and the impossibility of this endeavour. His home, where most of his images originate, is a crypt, a secret space, a place of worship, the house of a martyr who is being wrongfully persecuted by his fellow humans.

Yiannis Theodoropoulos lives and works in Athens, Greece.
