shapeshifters is a photo book project that came to life during my masters studies in
barcelona. it’s a search of how we can truly visualize the sensation of our identities and
the fluidity in our lives - themes that often seem difficult or even impossible to explain
shapeshifters isn’t a photographic work only.
at the same time it’s a process for me, and
all the people involved in the course of the project, to get rid of certain ways of
thinking, looking and creating images, of a photographic language that we are used to
seeing and reproducing and which is founded on a hetero-cis normative perspective
in the process the book was handcrafted using different prints, materials and texts that
have been made and collected throughout the past year as well as some archival
material
