In June last year Photography Center of Thessaloniki arranged a workshop with the young Danish photographer Jacob Aue Sobol from Magnum Photos, in a small village called Lafkos near the town of Volos in central Greece. In this workshop attended 20 of Greece's most talented photographers. Jacob gave them the assignment HOME. Photograph your home in a city you don't know, not your physical home but your mental end emotional home. The photographers worked for five days with the topic of HOME, photographing the entire village, the people, the streets, the animals, each other, everything was photographed and a home took shape.
