Rafael Pozo, Manresa 1960




I don't know how many reasons may exist for taking a photograph, above all if the photographer lacks motivation. I would like to imagine someone who shoots a photograph _ just because _, without anyone asking for it, not as a favour, a souvenir or a job. For nothing special _ just because _. Someone who thinks he has seen something in reality that needs to be rescued and wants to have a pause to think. A time switch that turns on reality. Not a receiver but a creator of images. In short, someone with imagination, that's it, someone capable of always seeing beyond what he sees, who tries to achieve a level of strangeness that bursts and reinvents reality. A poet of de gaze...
