In the course of an artists' residency in Diaphane, photographic pole in Hauts-de-France, photographer Israel Ariño traveled the area of ​​Clermontois between June 2017 and December 2018. During his travels he witnessed the changing of the seasons, contending with the unpredictability of the journey and his desire to photograph the intermediate spaces he found intriguing. In images that examine the past and at once reflect on the future, our memories of places sway between geographic recognition and temporal questioning. Color here is an element of transfiguration, occasionally perverse, that urges us to reconsider our perception of the land and to subvert reality — in short, to poeticize it.

This work has been published thanks to the support of Diaphane, photographic center in Hauts-de-France. It has also received backing from Galerie VU and Grisart.

Israel Ariño (Barcelona, ​​1974). After graduating in Fine Arts at the University of Barcelona, ​​between 1992 and 1998 Ariño trained in photography at different schools. In 2001 he became a professional photographer, and since then divided his time between teaching, working as a publisher at Ediciones Anómalas and creating his own art works.

During his travels, he witnessed the changing seasons, grappling with the unpredictability of travel and his desire to photograph the intermediate spaces that he found intriguing. In images that question the past and reflect on the future, our memories of places oscillate between geographical recognition and temporal questioning. Color here is an element of transfiguration that pushes us to reconsider our perception of the earth and to subvert reality, in short to poeticize it.
