About The Artwork

Photography: Black & White – Silver Print on Ildford Fiber Baryta base “Your own flesh and blood myths” (Title) Morphine Fragrance (Series) The metaphor is part of what is being mythologized in this photographic ensemble, a collection of images which tell of a hidden reality, leading towards a place "where the myths are not just persons, but also places and objects." That absence and that silence, resulting in something as close as personal relationships, is the narrative expression the author is looking for. This tension can be observed in the way the personalities are approached, anonymously, many of them undefined sexually, eschewing established norms and offering an unlimited interpretative field that's portrayed naturally and on a tangible level. A silent theatre in which the photographic "moment" approximates the magic of literature, allowing the spectator the opportunity to create his or her own descriptive composition of each story, of each moment, of each sensation. Raul Urbina, a Spanish Artist, write down what he feels at every given moment and describing what he's writing about with every image. ITEM SPECIFICS: The work is also available in 2 sizes.

STATEMENT BY RAUL URBINA: Creating stories from each single image, searching through the different realities which surround it, whether they're inherent or from somewhere else. Places where the visual creation is subordinate to the written work, forming a poetic inventory of our time which acts as a solid base in Raul Urbina's work. The result is a series of small visual poetic creations, all open to the viewer's own interpretation of them. The titles of each work, in many cases, form part of the short poems written within that same creative process, in some cases in the same place and at the same moment. "On many occasions, when I shoot I'm thinking of the title of the work and this serves as a point of reference for me." The tale which Urbina weaves casts aside the formal aspect in order to show the creator's sensitivity at the moment of approaching the personalities, places and objects which surround him.

I studied History at the Autónoma University of Madrid, but soon chose the path of becoming a self-taught photographer. I focus my work to explore ideas about concepts of place, identity, memory, history ... start from daily live and explore the road between reality and fiction. “His works are conceived on the basis of certain initial rational approaches, in which the camera or the formal photographic result is not the only ultimate objective, but a means to engaging in an open narrative in which multiple interpretations are possible. Behind his photographs is an endeavour to reclaim what is real, to explore the network of relationships existing around us and to position the city as the primary object of investigation and artistic practice. Urbina is a photographer who seeks to collect his own dreams and everything that we never see because we are, or think we are, too used to seeing it. Such photographic endeavour is a challenging task, and by no means purposeless. It encourages us to learn how to see, to force ourselves to look with simplicity. He used the portrait to narrate little stories.”
