Man and animal perhaps\u2026 the reasons for this bond are lost in the mists of time, a bond sometimes unbreakable, sometimes necessary, the reason for this union has been survival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A bond that sometimes faltered due to distrust between the two, leading to an arcane fear about their supposed powers, but also because of their association with vices and virtues of a religious morality that was prevalent in certain historical periods. The symbolism with these meanings also created a mystery around animals, arousing fascination in people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Animal and territory: a tale that stretches back to the most distant times where many stories have been associated with these “man and animal” bonds. However, I don’t intend to tell or reference them. With my works (I prefer to call them that even though they are photographic shots), I try to recreate a sort of medieval bestiary, reinterpreted in a modern key where the individual “BEING” has a close bond with Soul and Anima(le), playing with a pun from the perfect union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The interpretation of animals and time had a symbolic or religious reading that served as a warning to give up one’s vices and pursue the virtues attributed to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With these “works,” I aim to create a sort of singularity between the faces of people and animals, becoming Being and Soul-animals, the analogy that binds them together and creates fundamental connections that indicate and suggest the attribution of specific properties and meanings, where each animal has its human counterpart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The analogy of my shots starts from an evident fact that creates symbiosis between man and animal. A search that uncovers connections between the visible finite world and the invisible one, as we know it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Connections emanating from “Beings with Soul-animals”, shapes and colors with characteristics and attributions from the past that thus become one with the composition of the shot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
