Friday Night (Single)
DESCRIPTION
A no added tax Friday night in Bogota, Colombia: full of energy, parties, commerce and traffic, an urban landscape seen from above, a shot that expresses motion and electricity. This photograph makes part of a bigger project called "ASK FOR THE RAW FILES", a collection of images that seem heavily edited but that defy what can be done only in camera,
AUTHOR
Born in 1991 in Bogotá, Colombia; I started working with lens-based media since I was 13 years old. Studied journalism with a scholarship in Universidad Sergio Arboleda and specialized in photography in Escuela de Fotografía Zona Cinco.
Worked in Arteria, the only fine arts journal in Colombia and as an associate gallerist with Park West Galleries (USA). Started travelling and working in cruiseships as a photographer and videographer, visiting more than 70 museums, 200 cities and 60 countries of Europe and the Americas. This allowed me to have an archive of more than 2000 photographs of landscapes and urban scenarios; I publish one weekly in @therestheforeigner (Instagram). I also recorded 45 short cultural videos of Europe for my Youtube account: There's The Foreigner.
Won 3 honor mentions in the International Photography Awards in the professional category for Fine Arts in 2020. Fine art photography is uploaded to photosynthesisvisualartist (Instagram).
Won Visualizing Climate Change contest over 5400 submissions of more than 150 countries. This exhibition was part of the schedule of COP 26, the climate change United Nations summit in Glasgow, UK. My work was seen by more than 100 world leaders like Joe Biden, Boris Johnson, EU prime ministers.
