Biography

Kostis Fokas is a photographer based in London. His work focuses on the interplay between youth culture and eroticism and widely reflects aspects of his inner self.
While on stage, he uses his models as toys, giving them the freedom to interact and playfully participate in the photographic process.

By using and integrating various media and objects like cheap cameras, sex toys and masks, his objects are not necessarily stylized or staged; rather, he is photographing for the moment, capturing his subjects somewhere between reality and fantasy. Most of his subjects are covered up, hidden or nude, serving as provocative, playful and sometimes quirky.Through this process, he constantly redefines his identity and exposes himself via the subjects presented.
