“The Ravine, the Virgin & the Spring” is the new project I’ve been working on for the past year. Shot in its entirety in Guatemala City, it is a new way for me to interact with this territory.
In the last few years my work has been focused on getting out of my comfort zone, visiting topics and ways of producing images I’ve never experimented with before.
I’m really interested in how history has shaped our way of life. In this instance, I have conducted a dialogue with the city, seeking to understand how we got to where we are. Primitive urban planning, the 20th century and its political turmoil, internal conflict, natural disasters and globalization have made Guatemala City one of the most eclectic and peculiar places I’ve ever been to.
