Nacho Rivera - The Oval #1
Photography - Handmade Fiber Based Silver Gelatin Print 15 x 10 cm 2018 Nacho Rivera does not photograph to understand the world. He photographs to understand his place in it. What connects the body of work built across twenty years is not the subject but the gesture: a practice of sustained attention. His work returns again and again to the same questions about memory, belonging and presence. He shoots on black and white film and prints by hand in the darkroom as silver gelatin prints, not out of nostalgia, but because the process demands the same care as the looking itself.
