Katerina grew up in the centre of Athens hearing of hard to source mechanical parts, the beauty of Italian car bodies and the very life stories of those who owned them. But that is only natural for someone whose father is a passionate car mechanic. The photobook “How to drive” started as an attempt to photograph a place familiar yet never consciously explored. Katerina without fully acknowledging it draws from her memories and through the lens of her very own experience as a driver and a woman tells the other story of driving. In an almost cinematic way the car – object gradually becomes a place where daily routine is celebrated as a ceremony. It is a photobook about the mundane in a personal yet inclusive way that suggests a shift to our attention from the things we are told to the things we experience.
