Photojournalist Marios Lolos on ‘”Unguarded Passage” | 01 June 2022

Marios Lolos was hosted in the studio of Voice of Greece, by Thomas Sideris, in the program “Unguarded Passage”, in a radio documentary, dedicated to the photographer and former president of the Union of Greek Photographers. The photographer recalled in his memory fugitive images of people and events, trying to reconstruct the puzzle of memory, and “spread” his photographic frames in the Radio Hall of Voice of Greece. Marios Lolos talks about those shots that he never took, that he lifted his engine, focused his lens, but never heard the “click”. The emergence of another social reality in Greece and abroad, through the instant footage of a combat photographer. Marios Lolos was always there: at social unrest, refugee flows, conflict. Marios Lolos also talks about the refugee girls who took the camera in their hands and recorded the social reality, through their own eyes, but also about his tour of the refugee village of Kokkinia and its confrontation with the immobility of time.
