About
Lives and works in New York, USA
Born in Mexico and raised in Spain, Colombian photographer Camila Falquez creates photographs that harness the traditions of fashion and portrait photography to honor a contemporary spectrum of social and gender diversity. Channeling the conventions of surrealism and a painterly color palette, she creates an empowering vision that ushers in the narratives of community, humanity, liberation and visibility.
“With my work I try to manifest the possibility for a thriving ecosystem of LGBTQIA+ rights, Indigenous Voices and social justice. I believe the answers we long for reside in the individuals that inhabit de so called “margins”. There is nothing I respect more than being a part of those ecosystems and being in conversation with those who are fighting every day for a freer planet.”
