ALIWEN: "Bodegones de Elena"

PROYECTO: “BODEGONES DE ELENA” PROJECT : “ELENA’S STILL LIFE”

In December 2019 I opened up a photography studio to pursue my creative work on Still Life in the property which was built back in the year 1940 when my 85 years old grandmother Elena was about five years old. Its walls and gardens have witnessed the lives of my maternal great-grandparents and grandparents. I must accept the fact that each time I walk in the studio I have a strange feeling, as if I am being watched, even though this fact does not constitute an impediment that might influence in the materialization of these images. I feel respect and admiration, being fully aware that my past generations have been here surrounded by these walls .

All this universe entwines with my love and energy on each detail I gather at this ancestral place which has sponsored the beginning of this project titled: “Elena’s Still Life”.
