EXPOSIÇÂO: ALLÍ MIS PEQUEÑOS OJOS

© Guillermo Franco

Snapshots of the daily life, perpetuated by the eye of the artist.

What is real – untamed – reveals itself in fiction.

The invisible – essentia – is up to imagination.

The niggling, the banal, the superfluous… it all becomes of value when there is wonder.

Direct shots. Spontaneous. Lively.

A collection of black and white stamps, which give color to time and space.

The voyeur lends a look to the auteur.

To wander, if paying attention, collects beautiful pictures, full of memories, memorable; which sum up joy, irony, sensitivity and tenderness.

Of course: now becomes forever. And yes -let it be said this way- what is short makes what lasts forever
