Georg Gatsas is a Greek-Swiss photographer who, after teaching himself photography, began capturing New York’s underground music scene in 2002. Gatsas’s photography explores contemporary club culture and socio-cultural processes, immersing himself in the identities of his subjects while embracing themes of freedom, diversity, and solidarity. His series often depict moments of collective experience, such as the impact of music on dance in nightlife settings, and address identities shaped by migration and global networks. Through juxtaposing portraits taken in Switzerland with those from major cities worldwide, Gatsas reflects on the experience of being in-between worlds and engages in intercultural dialogue, questioning modern self-representation in a socially networked age.

Gatsas’s website functions as an archive, drawing inspiration from the layout of a camera desktop, with a clear distinction between text and images. It features smooth transitions between series and individual works, emphasizing their relationships and connections.
