On 13 June 2025, KiS hosted the vernissage of the exhibition \u201ePlato: Photos from the island of Paros\u201c. \u201eThe camera is nothing more than a tool. What counts is the story, the message, the feeling, the connection,\u201c says the photographer, who was born Platon Antoniou in London in 1968 and has Greek roots, about his work. And: \u201eTaking a photo is a very technical matter, but I spend 99.9 % on this connection that allows me to reach someone. And that connection opens up the chance that you [the viewer] will feel something too.\u201c In his photographs, Platon captures the personality of his subjects. He pays attention to their gaze, their hands or a particular expression on their face.<\/p>\n
Plato also applied what is usually seen in his portraits of influential people to the people of the island of Paros, the place of his childhood. The large-format black and white photographs can be seen at KiS from 13 June to 28 September 2025.<\/p>\n
