Draft:Kiko

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kiko Born in Porto (1997), has lived in Ayamonte, Barcelona and Madrid. Graduated in Art History from FLUP (2018),he currently dedicates himself to his work as a multidisciplinary artist - photography (analog) and film (super 8), painting, dance, performance, collages, poetry and ceramics. Co-founder of fleur studio (2022), he also works as a curator/editor for the photography magazine Safelight Paper Magazine Berlin.

He's had photographs in exhibitions in Rome (2022) and Berlin (2023), a photograph selected on Another Magazine's Instagram profile (2023), and more recently, the publication of a series of photographs in the book NHUDES JOURNAL #2, by OBENTŌ PRESS (2024); he also had poems published in APNEIA magazine (2017-2019).

Through portraits, still lives, street, landscape or architecture photography, and a focus on artistic and conceptual photography, I create images and capture moments worth immortalising. It comes as natural and inescapable as breathing.

Because of my studies and the experimentation with analog photography, I developed a great interest and importance in the artistic process and methods, which translates into shooting with film, a physical and manual process in every step, from the loading of the film to the development and printing, conveying the importance and uniqueness of every shot (as a metaphor to us, perhaps).

I will take pictures until my last breath.
