Richard Le Manz
Towns (Series)
DESCRIPTION
City metaphor reflected in images of great visual impact, located between illusion and reality with a deep and meditated conceptual charge that brings the viewer to reflect on our world and our way of life.
Dehumanized cities, where environmental problems have not been taken into account for their growth and habitability. We need cities for people and to take care of the environment.
AUTHOR
Richard Le Manz is a Spanish conceptual photographer whose work is mostly recognized for raising awareness and criticism about climate change.
His artistic discourse is marked by his training in industrial engineering and his passion for travel and nature. He started in landscape photography, but soon understood photography not only to capture beauty, but also to reflect on the social and environmental problems that threaten our planet.
Le Manz makes use of his special ability to unveil new meanings in things, raising reflections on universal issues. Through his art and the power of his images he pays special attention to the current problems of the world, especially the environmental ones, and of our society. Sometimes absurd pairing, transformation, irony, and double meaning are some of the resources the artist uses to establish communication with the viewer.
