“Elsewhere” by Photographer Francisco Gonzalez Camacho

A meditative collection by Spanish artist Francisco Gonzalez Camacho. Primarily based in Helsinki, Francisco is at the moment working towards his Grasp’s diploma in Images at Aalto College. His follow focuses on themes of household, mortality, and the connectedness between panorama and self. In “Elsewhere,” Francisco explores the concept of displacement with nature rising as a coping mechanism and transcendental area. The continuing undertaking, developed during the last two years in Finland, combines components of poetic narration, references to pictorialism, and the usage of infrared pictures:

“On this work I discover the usage of the panorama as a cathartic reduction to cope with the emotions of isolation concerned within the technique of immigrating to a international nation. The ensuing immersion in nature opened a brand new dialog with the setting, appearing as a reminder of our insignificance within the cosmic scale, but in addition about our connectedness with the panorama, typically forgotten. The fleeting moments of magical realism captured on this collection purpose to condense the fragility of time, to droop the actual world, making a bridge to a brand new one.”
