Huellas Urbanas
Huellas Urbanas
Huellas Urbanas explores the human presence in the city through lights and shadows that dialogue with the urban environment. The silhouettes, sometimes sharp and others blurred, become ephemeral fragments of the city itself. Black and white removes chromatic distractions, highlighting the interaction between lights and shadows, between people and the urban landscape.
The series proposes an intimate encounter with the city and its inhabitants: silhouettes that could belong to anyone, moments that could be of anyone, reminding us of the universality of the urban experience and the importance of learning to look at everyday life. Huellas urbanas does not represent specific people or stories; rather, it invites us to contemplate how the city and its inhabitants are intertwined, where each moment reveals an invisible fabric in which human and urban are perceived as one.
Author
I am Alejandro Brenes Sanmartín, and my photographic work revolves around the exploration of space, light, and memory. I am interested in transforming everyday life into visual metaphors, capturing silences, geometries, and fragments of time that invite contemplation. My gaze moves between the real and the abstract, using photography as an introspective language capable of revealing the invisible and generating an intimate dialogue between the image and the viewer.
