The Man With The Flowers
An image from my ongoing series 'The Garden'.
Portrays a man with freshly picked flowers from his garden, on a warm spring day.
To the date, many cultures brings boys and men to conform to a definition of masculinity that emphasizes toughness, stoicism and self-reliance. As a result, this leads to the growth of emotionally stunted men. I lived this very closely in my home country, Spain.
This tender image stands against toxic masculinity and outdated stereotypes.
I am a spanish artist based in Berlin, working with photography. I tell stories through my lens, inviting you to sit down, admire the details and feel the emotion of the moments I capture and pass on to you.
My art follows a strong focus on intimacy, women and natural elements.
