UPDATE: Amanda Smith and Kevin Tully interview Eduardo for the A Smith Gallery Awards Collective GalleryTalk Series. This body of work was awarded publication in FotoNostrum Magazine, Special Issue, Dec 2024. For my series “The Uncertain Nature of Reality”, I explore the logic-defying concepts of quantum mechanics from a philosophical point of view while composing and collaging images of ballet dancers in rehearsal.

In The Map of Forgotten Dreams, I embrace photography’s ability to transcend reality, using it as a conduit for the unseen and the deeply felt.

The Barbizon movement, though rooted in 19th-century painting, can inspire and inform modern artistic practices across mediums. Its emphasis on authenticity, emotional connection, and reverence for nature aligns seamlessly with the art of fine art photography. By adopting the Barbizon mindset, photographers can create images that not only capture the beauty of the world but also evoke its soul, bridging the gap between tradition and modernity in profoundly meaningful ways.

Amid the serene landscape, a less idyllic scene unfolds: a small group of turkey vultures, majestic yet ghastly, huddle over the remains of a seal. Their bald red heads, which often inspire unease, are evolutionary adaptations designed for their grim task. 

For me, creating conceptual imagery is a process that begins with introspection and evolves into a visual language that others can interpret and complete in their unique ways. By infusing my work with elements of mysticism and ambiguity, I leave space for viewers to explore the unknown and construct their narratives.
