Creed (Single)
DESCRIPTION
Religion remains a very powerful means of finding consolation against
inevitable death, but it can serve to mark a border, to expel another, to
kill without remorse.
To consider a creed as the only true one is the principle towards fanaticism
and religious intolerance.
But nowadays we face a much more dangerous threat, where a state tries to
force citizens to embrace the right way to approach a religion, even to the
validity of intolerance to other religions.
It is a problem that is widespread, even in modern and advanced democracies.
The reappearance of this thought poses a threat to liberal societies, built
on the freedom and equality of its citizens.
AUTHOR
For me photography should always tell a story.
With an architect father, his training in photography has been self-taught.
He has used different architectural photography workshops and long-term courses in documentary projects and photographic language at the Fuga and El Observatorio schools, respectively. In all cases in the city of Barcelona (Spain).
His photography tries to draw on the complexity of architectural design, light and shadow to convey the design of space in a simple but efficient way.
His photographic works have a large component of visual narrative and navigate between the documentation of the work and the urban landscape.
