ALBERTO SANCHEZ
Born 1971, Spain
Spanish / Australian Alberto Sánchez is a photographer and multimedia artist based between Byron Bay, Australia, and Asturias, Spain. Sánchez prints, hacks and re-invents his own photographs using a unique hand colouring technique, creating his own form of magic realism where photographic documentary is meshed with improbable landscapes. Sanchez’ work is simultaneously an inquiry into the nature and essence of how we perceive the world we live in. His aim is to challenge our perception in order to question our relationship with space and time. By using expressive colours and dynamic brush strokes he transforms the obvious and invites us into his parallel landscapes.
His body of work explores the notions of our human environment, urban expansionism and how individuals define themselves in an overloaded sensorial landscape. “The old world of Europe [for example] already has a strong set identity. It has an ancient history with many institutions and charismatic buildings which dominate the landscape. I try and stay away from the icons, yet capture a city that you can recognize.” In modern cities, “I had to figure out the key access points of the city, the major intersections where I could maximize the unity between human and metropolitan interaction.”
