Athens light‑painting shot
Street‑photographer paraxeno daimonio entered a long‑exposure motion light painting of Athens in the #617gallery contest — the image (explicitly marked ‘no AI’) landed 10 likes and 233 views on the post (x.com). The piece reads like abstract street photography — motion, light trails and urban density compressed into a single-frame experiment (x.com).
The image is credited to Christina Savvatianou, who publishes work under the handle paraxeno_daimonio on art pages and social accounts. (facebook.com) Her Motion Project series and a blog titled "Side Effects" contain long‑exposure street experiments posted in 2021 and earlier, documenting repeated light‑painting work. (paraxenosf.blogspot.com) The hashtag used for the contest traces to 617gallery, a curator identity tied to a Boston‑based collector named Christopher who uses the handle MASS_617 and maintains a Linktree for 617gallery. (linktr.ee) 617gallery’s public portfolio on MyPixieset lists Boston photography collections — including Fenway Park, the Boston Red Sox, Old Scituate Lighthouse and MBTA imagery — indicating the gallery’s regional curation activity. (617gallery.mypixieset.com) Plektani art pages reposted paraxeno_daimonio’s motion and light‑painting pieces across multiple posts between 2019 and 2021, framing them as part of recurring street‑installation and motion projects. (facebook.com) Additional archival posts and Spatial listings preserve titles and images from paraxeno’s light‑painting experiments, showing an ongoing practice of compressing urban motion and light into single‑frame long exposures.
