Luis Manuel Iglesias

Self-taught, born in A Coruña in 1970. From his earliest age, he feels an authentic fixation by nature, which teaches him to be a stubborn observer, obtaining with it in return, the enormous satisfaction of learning about the life of the different creatures that coexist with us.

At the age of eighteen he discovered photography as timeless visual support. It is during the first years, when looking to get a naturalistic sampler, of the nearest nature. Focusing especially on the most tiny creatures. But over time, the urgent need arises to intimate and harmonize photography and nature. Always trying to achieve the same goal, to start that moment captured by our senses and held back enduring.

Today, he seeks through this visual medium to evoke in the viewer past experiences, which delve into the essence of the enjoyed, causing reminiscences of that past. For this purpose it is expressed through movement or through illustrative photography, interpolating and sometimes overlaying various refined techniques over the years.

He has published six books, written many articles for different magazines and books. And his images have been awarded in some of the most prestigious competitions on an international level.
