GUILLERMO ESPINOSA

Share Post

 

Country: Spain
Birth: 1985

 

Guillermo Espinosa is a Spanish photographer born in Madrid in 1985 and currently based in Berlin. He studied Graphic arts and winemaking in Madrid. He started photography around 7 years ago, making pictures in the streets of Madrid with an old reflex camera. Later on, he moved to Germany to work as a waiter. It was then that he saw the potential of street photography as a way to grow personally and escape from the routine. Since then he has combined his job as a waiter with some jobs related to photography such as Cruiseship photographer or photographer for a german decoration shop. He is currently involved in a few ongoing street photography projects in the city of Berlin.

 

 

STATEMENT
My artwork is about the relation between the human being and the public environment, searching for the insual in the usual or mundane. Trying to find candid moments in daily life using what the environment gives me, such as light, subjects, geometry, etc. Another distinguishing feature is the friction created by the layers (physical or conceptual). I have been always attracted by the contrasts that happen in everyday life, the juxtaposition in any “normal” situation that can create many humoristic, visual, or critical lectures. Even a frontal shot of a character on the street can be read in many different ways depending on the viewer, place, or epoque. My main approach is to create a connection with the viewer that can go beyond the aesthetics, making an image more than a 2D object that confronted the previous concept of the daily life
