Carlos González Pérez
"No digital manipulation, no distortion lenses or double exposure in my photographs"
Born in Spain and living in London.
Since childhood, I have been searching for other ways of seing, travelling extensively, always trying to learn from my interactions with new people and new environments. This way of life led me to photography and my photographic style. It has allowed me to get closer to communities and subjects that are important to me.
As an urban nomad and self-taught photographer, my approach to photography has evolved in a very particular way, forcing a clearer sense of what I want to achieve: a space where a constellation of many possible meetings and encounters can come alive together.
Drawing on my intuition,I use the camera purely as a means to explore what I see with my own eyes. I no use digital manipulation, distortion lenses or double exposure as creative tools. I want to show the viewer other realities that already exist. One does not have to manipulate them, only to change the way we look.
Over the years I have been able to delve deeper and discover other layers of realities which allowed me to dissolve the boundaries of these different spaces into one.
I like to play with the viewer's perceptions of what they think they are seeing, to make them question the authenticity of their visual perception. Nothing is real and everything is real; nothing has boundaries and yet we ourselves are boundaries. Identity is and is not and the opposite but a force field of many others.
I seek to capture the natural and, at the same time,the unnatural juxtapositions in our lives: a reminder, I hope, of the uncertainty and fragility of our existence.
I invite your comments and questions about my work.
