Mareo

(work in progress)

Of every place we save previous images in our minds. Of the sea, especially, we have many memories. From our childhood, from postcards, from tourism prospects, from our own photos, and many more. So our idea of landscape is made by these images that are always surrouning us.

In this work I attempt to find a personal view of the sea, to bring out from my visual experience a picture different from the ones I have seen, or remember have seen.

(The word mareo means dizziness. In Spanish belongs to the sea word family).
