This portrait is a deeply respectful and empathetic study of an elderly Black man, acknowledging the often-overlooked Afro-Uruguayan community. His aged face tells a story of a long life, filled with experiences, wisdom, and perhaps hardship. The lighting carefully sculpts his features, highlighting the texture of his skin and the depth in his eyes. The title itself is direct and descriptive, devoid of romanticism, which adds to its authenticity and power. It is a dignified recognition of his presence and his contribution to the rich tapestry of Uruguayan society.
“Buena parte de mi trabajo deambuló en personajes del campo uruguayo, la obra muestra el país nuestro auténtico. Mostrar nuestro país, nuestros ríos, nuestras personas. No todo el trabajo se va a limitar a eso, hay algunas fotos que también van a ser urbanas.”
“Most of my works are about wandering characters in rural Uruguay, showcasing our real country. Showcasing our country, our rivers, and our people. Not all work is limited to this, and some photos may also be urban.”
