The blinding light of the Andalusian sunshine; white walls reflecting the harsh heat, burning my retina. When I close my eyes, the fleeting afterglow of that same picture as if printed on my eyelids.

Andalusia’s disfigured landscape, scars of concrete and steel left by abandoned real estate projects.

Paradoxically, as the remnants of this unbridled real estate speculation slowly fades into oblivion, their photographic depiction gradually emerges from obscurity. Afterglow, a work on decline and transience in the form of retinal persistence.
