About the Photographer
Anuar Patjane
Social anthropologist, photographer and scuba diver born in Mexico in 1981.
I believe in pure and unlimited creative power and try to avoid all stereotypes regarding what I do with my camera and with the photographs I create. Each and every photograph is unique, unrepeatable and endless; so should be their interpretations. I crave for moments depicting strong meanings and emotions and do what I can to capture them and create visual stories with them, stories that show the power of empathy... stories that focus the attention on places and moments which usually escape unnoticed. I cannot photograph the staged, the arranged. I need reality flowing the subject of my work as that is my element and what I enjoy photographing.
We cannot be just photographers, accountants, politicians or students anymore, our planet is reaching the point of no return in environmental equilibrium and action from everyone is needed. It is now necessary to do what we can to revert our aggressive behaviour and carelessness towards our own planet, by educating ourselves and others and using all in our reach to change our behaviour once and for all.
