About Last Stop from George Georgiou
The essence of Last Stop is that you might take the same route every day but what you see, the ebb and flow on the street takes on a random nature, like a series of fleeting mini soap operas. The concertina book format reflects and mimics the flow of a bus journey, but more importantly, it gives the viewer the opportunity to create their own journeys by spreading the book out and combining different images together. This moves the book away from an author-led linear narrative to one of multiple possibilities.
About George Georgiou from Panos Pictures
George received a BA Honours in Photography, Film and Video Arts from the Polytechnic of Central London (now the University of Westminster) in 1987 and joined Panos Pictures in 1999. Over the last decade, George has photographed extensively in the Balkans, Eastern Europe and Turkey, where his work focused on identity and people caught between communities, cultures and ideologies. Preferring to concentrate on long term projects, George spent time living and working in Serbia, Greece and Turkey. “When you first arrive in a place, you are so informed by images you have already seen that it is a burden you have to lose,” says George when explaining his approach to photography and the time it takes to understand a country and its people.
