Having to describe my self in about 100 words, especially after a period of feeling num and unable to express anything,sounds a bit like climbing Everest!
But anyways, i have to accept this since i've desided to take action again.
It might sound a bit stone-age but i have to confess that this is one of the few times that i use the internet. The reason is that my sight has been reducing the past 5 years , due to RETINITIS-PIGMENTOSA (an eye disease obviously) and is now about 2/10. I feel like this is the first piece of information that i should give about myself ,especially because what i've chosen and have been doing for the past 15 years is being a fashion editor.
The way these two things combine is by it's nature something contradictory and cannot be put into words. All my other senses have helped me to create images for many publications.
Since i'm based in Greece all my assignments were for the Greek editions of international magazines such as VOGUE,L'OFFICIEL,INSTYLE,HARPER'S BAZAAR,ESQUIRE.
I've decided to enter into this forum because i'm infront of turning point in my life and the need of presenting myself in the cyber world is something that cannot be postponed.
What fired this need is this fashion-protest project that i've decided to do inorder to express some of my thoughts on fashion that i'd like to share with the rest of the world.
By now i'm way over 100 words so think i should stop about here.
Reaction will be well appreciated.
