TITLE: "Lascia Ch'io Pianga - Aria for a Woman"

Based in Antwerpen (Belgium) but originally from Spain. I've started as a street photographer. Sometimes into portraits but mainly street and reportage/documentary photography. This time I had the chance to collaborate with a friend for a portrait in my studio under my school work at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerpen (Belgium) - Koninklijke Academie voor Schone Kunsten Antwerpen (Fotokunst 2nd Year 2019)

AUTHOR: Jose Javier Garcia Perez (Belgium)

My name is J.J. Garcia and Yes, I am a photographer. Based in Antwerpen (Belgium) but originally from Spain, I’ve been making photographs most of my life and I have a deep passion for photography that I would like to share with you, Why?

I try to think that in every person's life, sooner or later, there is always a time when you stop for a moment what you are doing and you start listening to a different language intimately. You are the owner of your reality but also the owner of your blurry dreams.

Here I'll use a DSLR camera or an SLR one, 35mm or 6x6 film B&W film, for sure a different language. A language not requiring words, just time.

I wish you enjoy it as I do.
