Profile
Colombian, Photojournalist for widely read Colombian newspapers and news magazines. Emphasis in Historical Memory, focused on social projects with communities’ victims of the Colombian Armed Conflict (forced disappearance), teacher, and researcher. Master in Socio-spatial Studies. With photography I carry out a work of artistic experience in the reflection on Human Rights, women and social conflicts and family. I had to migrate to Canada because my work threatened the authority and brought violence and abuse to my life. As a visual artist I have developed a project that narrates the resistance of the face of pain, oblivion, and exile, with photography, “AL SOL AL VIENTO”, through the clothes laid out, a vocation of protection, care, and permanence is discovered. In Colombia, landscapes are dressed in color and shapes to narrate the presence of people in the territory. The clothes are carried by the wind and the sun to fall on the grass and cement, and then dress each story. This photographic project is sublimated on textile, to create works in which women are remembered, their work, the delicacy of the clothes, and those who wear them. Documentary photography captures the essence of locations and characters in their natural state and everyday life to achieve a visual narrative of the context. Winner of the 2003 United Nations Photography award in the category of Human Rights in Colombia. Recipient of a special recognition from Cuba for portfolio,‘A Spiral of Children without Heaven’ in 1998. I published a book “Relatos de una cierta mirada”.
