Ελένη ΜουζακίτηΣτην ενότητα έργων «Leisure Time» η Ελένη Μουζακίτη επικεντρώνεται στην απεικόνιση δημόσιων χώρων αναψυχής (π.χ. πάρκα, παραλίες, καφέ). Όπως η ίδια η καλλιτέχνιδα σημειώνει: «Μέσω της παρουσίας των ανθρώπων στους χώρους αυτούς επιχειρώ να καταγράψω ορατές εκδηλώσεις της έννοιας της απορρόφησης και της καταλλαγής που εδώ μοιάζει να κυριαρχεί. Επιχειρώ τέλος να διερευνήσω τις πιθανές κρυμμένες πολιτικές συνδηλώσεις της γεωγραφίας του ελεύθερου χρόνου».

She has taught courses in photography and artistic photography at the Department of Fine Arts and Sciences of Art at the University of Ioannina (2002-2005) and is a facilitator of workshops on creative photography and contemporary photographic artistic practices.
