El Pais Semanal - Photoessay - El año en que se secó el cielo

El Pais Semanal (Sunday magazine of El Pais newspaper) has published my personal work about the Drought in Catalonia, inside their section Fotoensayo, in an essay titled "El año en que se secó el cielo" (The year the sky dried up).

I photographed last winter several scenarios related to water management and the historical drought crisis Catalonia has experienced in the last months. A critical situation that might represent a tiny window to glimpse our future.

I am grateful for the opportunity to reach a wide audience regarding this important issue.

The gallery can be seen online here:
