About the photo: “The idea is to turn the the unconscious dream that tends to be our life, into a lucid dream. To do that, I try not to be involved or identified so not to be absorbed by reality. It’s about creating a separation, seeing everything from outside, attending as a spectator to distinguish my subjective perception of what constitutes objective reality. Equivalent act of making an effort to remain lucid in dreams and lead them, but taken to the life and considering it as a dream that we create on the flow.”

About the place: “Nigrán is a seaside town, in the northwest of Spain and very close to Portugal, whose population increases substantially in summer. It is a very nice place to live because the weather is mild all year. It has beaches, mountains, rivers, and a large city to no more than 20 km far called Vigo. I have a special love for this place, its landscapes and the light there, because they’re where I spent the happiest moments of my childhood.
