Winners of Minimalist Photography Awards 2025 Announced
This year's title of Minimalist Photographer of the Year has been awarded to Alexandros Othonos for his moving series "Threads of Memory's." In this project, Othonos transforms vintage family photographs with delicate thread interventions, creating a powerful meditation on memory, time, and nostalgia. By stitching into these images, he invites viewers to reflect on the emotional weight carried within old family albums-where absence, history, and intimacy are intertwined. His series resonated deeply with the jury, standing out as a profound example of minimalist visual storytelling. For this achievement, Othonos receives the Grand Prize of €2,000.
