Catalonian photographer Gemma Gonzalez had our attention since the first time we saw one of her self-portraits, several years ago. We immediately realized that there’s much more to her than a pretty face; her conceptual self-portraits always seem to capture the right mood, which she achieves by her own facial expressions and poses. But also her styling, composition and post-processing add towards very personal and intimate picture. Omnipresent is a touch of darkness, adding a haze of mystery to both her persona as her…Read More »

The series is all about perception, boundaries and intimacy: “Threshold is a study about the limit. Of the photographer on the other, of the observer on the other, of the other on the camera. Its double meaning reveals that we are also facing an exploration of the conditions of imminence. Threshold questions the portrait’s nature, acting…Read More »

What does make us interested in another person? What does…Read More »
