Title: Los cerros
Description: Los Cerros is the first book in Fotô's new Editorial line, where we developed a handcrafted printing process entirely done at Editora. In Los Cerros, the landscapes are hidden in black backgrounds. "In "Los Cerros", the landscapes are hidden in black backgrounds. They are cut by dim lights in high contrast, announcing only the glimpse of this place in its minimal existence. Through the gaps in these densities of black on black, the evidence of what is going on parades. Seeking to discover what they show us without showing us, illusionist surfaces create tangled depths that seek the telluric. Los Cerros is the assertive attempt to make a photobook, in which the movement of photography is interwoven with other prints. Photographs are born from another way of being photography. They are born with the experimentation of a design and then surpass it. They surrender to the gestures of the hands, which touch and feel the earth to learn more." (HKB Translation) --Page [120]
