    Description

    Villanueva is located in the southern Colombian department of Huila. The area has been undergoing desertification since the latter half of the 1990s, which has made normal farming difficult, and tourism is now the main source of cash income for local residents.

    This series is part of the results of a four-day walk through the Tatacoa Desert, which has become even more uninhabited since the pandemic and tourists have retreated, to photograph landscapes and portraits.

  • About this artist

    Concept

    Bogota is a city of which very little is said, despite its economic and demographic growth, visits and new migrations in recent years. Except for a few sectors, most of the metropolis are anonymous places with few geographic-tourist reference points.

    In general, for many inhabitants of Bogota, the knowledge they have about other localities and neighborhoods outside their own, whether in the work or residential context, is an unknown panorama or world, since there is hardly any reason to visit areas where there are only houses, factories, warehouses, storehouses and avenues, many of which are indistinguishable.

    As a resident photographer and daily immersed in the everyday spaces of Bogotá, my works seek to find a reasonable sense of visiting and experiencing the "anonymous" spaces of the city mentioned above. It is believed in the conviction that the act of photographing is not only about recording places, but also about creating them. Instead of trying to identify already recognized sites of interest, whether cultural or historical, I engaged in a reverse process where the photographs are highlighting and even reinventing places as sites worthy of attention.

    During the tour, from the insertion of a camera in my daily routines of displacement, an intriguing process has been experienced in which, as my perceptions move from the daily panoramas to the captured images and vice versa, the experience begins to resemble a "touristic" tour, of those that are made in cities or sites that have enjoyed the privilege of such recognition.

    In other words, my works have tried to witness the process of resignification of urban spaces, from the possible practice of reinventing urban cartography from the anonymous sites of the city, in order to recognize those "unique" sites worthy of a photographic pilgrimage.
