http://www.lightstalkers.org/galleries/contact_sheet/30140 At a time when the Greek economy is failing badly, a gigantic shift is materializing within the country's society. The way everything was organized for the last few decades is being questioned. The main target is the political system, accused of rampant corruption and having led the country to a dead-end, with a militant wave of strikes, riots, acts of vigilantism and civil disobedience a daily staple. Beyond the rage, a growing part of society is raising some self-critical issues. How did the country come to this, how could everybody sleepwalk into a catastrophe of such a magnitude, where does it go from here? My visits to the country during the past year have imprinted on me a feeling of sadness, restlessness and disbelief. Hope and despair alternate and even co-exist but whatever follows, it seems certain that nothing will be the same again. This is an ongoing photographic diary of the summer of 2011, the point of the big change. http://www.lightstalkers.org en-us http://images.lightstalkers.org/avatars/31050/DSC_1307_small.JPG
