Profile Panagiotis Kovanis

Panagiotis Kovanis (GR)
was born in Bios Bar, which was in Eksarchia (Athens) at the time and is now in Gazi (Athens). He was
a key member of the Greek graphic art group Synthesis, and designed many of their most underground single and album covers. Latterly, he runs a design studio called ChaosStudios - a loose group of freaks.

To quote Kovanis, “I like photography because it is a reality medium, unlike drawing which is unreal. I like to mess with reality…to bend reality. Some of my works beg the question of is it real or not?”.

  6. i remembered that the photographer in the integrated conference had a similar play for his presentation.
    mixing the real with the fake creates a new reality.
