My name is Natalia Francisca. I was born in Talavera a small mountain village in Peru. After a few years we moved to Ecuador where I did my primary and secondary education. Then I studied sociology in Antwerp, Belgium. Finally I moved to Buenos Aires where I studied photography. I’ve been here ever since.
I find that the best description of my work was given by a fellow photographer: “Natalia is direct and concise in matters that are not. She has a persistent coldness in her portraits and at the same time a peculiar eye for the details that make us how we are. Using analogue and digital aesthetics she creates a world of intense sensations, her work has a wide spectrum of compositions and tones. This combination of supports is reflected in her choice to show only fragments of this already saturated life. The irruption of light in her photographs generates a certain tension that gives her view even more power.”
