Title: Los otros
Description: "Los Otros" (The others) is not a book of portraits, is not a travel book, nor of street photos. It is, however, and without planning it, all of these together. For several years the constant trips for my work opened like a pause in my reality, a parallel universe behind an airplane-shaped portal. A world of repeated meetings with similar and monotonous people, airports and hotels. Routines of breakfasts, dinners and days in solitude and silence. Rituals of takeoffs, landings and waits. A pause forced by the distance in which I indulged in days of aimless walking and spying on people, scenes and dramas. To probe their thoughts, to imagine them. There is something that appears when we do not know that they are watching us and we immerse ourselves in that permeable and sensitive state. This book is my way of navigating those spaces and moods. It is my possibility to conjure silences, streets and days of solitude to discover myself as an unspoken subject in the furtive gaze of "The Others".
