Isabel Herrera isa a contemporary instant photographer and artist. She lives and works in Guatemala City. Her work portrays serenity and nostalgia and that which is also ephemeral, vaporous and impermanent.
From a deep state of quiescence, she hascome to the understanding that life is a succession of vanishing and fragile moments. While trying to remain in the now, detached from all things banal, She has found her own way, a personal interpretation of the world in a voyage of discovery and means to preserve these fragments of time. She captures and appreciates the now through instant photography.
The Polaroid SX70 and its experimental possibilities has allowed her to capture these fragile and evanescent instants always through shades and veils of haze. Her connection and relationship to nature is evident in all of the series.
Herrera has showcased her work in Galeria Sol del Río in Guatemala, Instant Photography festivals en exhibitions in France, Spain, Italy and Germany.
