Alarmados
The series documents the course of the first wave of the coronavirus around the world. Made during the course of 2020 in Belgium and Spain, includes images of Bruges, Brussels, Ghent, and Valencia. The series presents my personal vision of what has happened in recent months. The loneliness, fear, and weariness I felt as I quit my job and returned to my home country. From mandatory confinement to the establishment of new ties to my neighborhood. A return story that as move forward is combined with the headlines of the world's most important media outlets. A personal chronicle that moves away from the pure concept of journalism to delve into the feelings behind the camera. Taking a photographic report on structures in different countries in Europe, the Covid-19 explodes in China. Thinking of a possible expansion of the virus I decided to start taking pictures of what I felt while I decided to go back to Spain. Leaving Belgium a couple of days before the border closes, the project continues in Spain. The photographs shows a journey through my feelings, the piece of history I lived and that I decided to tell.
