Hands of Hydra

Hands of Hydra

Hands of Hydra is a documentary photography project exploring the labour, craftsmanship and daily work that sustain life on the island. Through close-up portraits of hands, the series reveals stories of skill, dedication and experience, highlighting the often-unseen individuals whose efforts shape Hydra's unique character. Each image serves as a testament to a life lived through work, capturing both the physical traces of labour and the dignity of those who perform it.
